Incompetent top management and toxic corporate culture - Anonymous employee MIMS Asia Employee Review

The President of Medical Marketing Strategic Unit’s inability to lead and lack of professionalism is disruptive to the business and destructive to employee morale. It is astonishing how someone with such low capabilities and skills can hold this high position at any sizable company. In most well-ran organizations, such behaviour would be deemed intolerable and a major liability. Sadly, this is not the case here. Perhaps senior leadership should pay attention and consider conducting reviews to find out what has truly been going on. • First of all, the President spends most of his working hours watching YouTube/Netflix/Sports and tending to his personal activities • As the highest ranking officer of the division, he provides no useful advice, guidance, or support to his teams. Every decision he makes is based on his biased perceptions and not fact- or evidence-based. This could be due to the fact that he is clueless of what day-to-day operations look like and lack of industry knowledge. • His ignorance and inability to learn how the business functions often lead to unnecessary spending, expenditures and adding workload to his team members to clean up his messes. • Under this President’s leadership, finger pointing, blaming, gossiping, and looking down on people are key corporate culture he brings to the company – creating a very toxic environment. He is best at finding faults, passing blames, and getting others to do his work. Perhaps this is his way to deflect and cover up his inability to perform his own tasks. • Despite displaying and packaging himself as a knowledgeable person, he is clueless of what day-to-day operations look like, since he’s busy streaming shows and blaming others for his misdeeds.
