Unproductive and unoriginal. General lethargy and lack of accountability. An organisation with no raison d'être - Anonymous employee Centre for Liveable Cities Employee Review

Mental atrophy from non-technical and unrigorous nature of work. Most "research" involves purely qualitative interviews and writing verbose reports and decks with no productive value-add. Lack of purpose and direction. I overheard a colleague saying that they had no idea what they were doing here, or the purpose behind their projects -- and they had been working here for years. Poor quality of employees. Employees have no real skills, or their skills are not being fully utilised. I was really appalled at the quality of people, they're uninspired and frivolous and only concerned with appearing busy.
