Pros
1. You get to learn a lot - honestly employees in &samhoud get to craft their own path of learning, and that is not very common in corporate these days. 2. You actually get client-facing time - this helps fresh graduates build confidence and communication skills, especially when talking to stakeholders things can be tough. 3. 4 day work week - the company doesn't follow this strictly, because "clients always come first" (sometimes even before their own people),
Cons
1. Leadership challenges Leadership is largely ineffective and appears driven by ego rather than direction. Leaders value unquestioning agreement and compliance, but react poorly to constructive challenge. The leadership team often seems unclear on priorities and responsibilities, with leadership meetings frequently turning into blame-shifting sessions under the banner of “culture.” 2. Blatant favouritism There is clear and consistent favouritism within the organisation. Special opportunities are often given to those who are personally favoured by leadership rather than those who perform well. High-performing employees are frequently overlooked and instead burdened with additional work without recognition. 3. Toxic culture enabled by leadership Despite frequent messaging around “culture,” toxic behaviour is often ignored when it involves individuals close to leadership. Gossip, backstabbing, and disruptive behaviour are tolerated, creating a work environment that contradicts the values leadership claims to uphold. 4. Image over impact Emotional display and outward positivity are prioritised over actual competence and results. Employees are judged more on how they appear rather than the quality of their work, which discourages authenticity and undermines performance.
