Pros
Chance to learn about ASEAN, travel, and meet interesting people
Cons
Very limited opportunities to learn, leadership is stretched thin and cannot support, and the company is simply not what it says it is. The ‘think tank’ name is misleading. It is a leadership training vendor, posing as a research institution. Leadership very concentrated at the top with strong hierarchy and rigid approval systems. Tiny teams mean everyone does everything and nobody has time. High turnover because people get burnt out or are frustrated. Some of upper management is well meaning and others are downright hostile (e.g. racial slurs).
