Valued for loyalty over performance - Specialist World Economic Forum Employee Review

Promotion metrics are heavily skewed toward leadership loyalty rather than performance. Throughout the organization - and specifically within the economics and social impact center - KPIs are largely ignored. I witnessed multiple instances where objective KPI underperformance was overlooked and praised due to personal allegiance. This creates a culture where personal loyalty outvalues actual results. Unclear gender-based discrimination allegations are used to shield underperforming and toxic female colleagues.
