Excellent work environment, modern facility in a prime location in GE.
What works well?
An excellent social and working environment, which refers to the overall atmosphere and the quality of relationships within the community. It reflects the collective sentiment regarding working conditions, management, and communication. A good environment promotes well-being, while a poor one creates tension. As far as I’m concerned, it’s top-notch.
What could be improved?
There is always room for improvement for each and every one of us, for every organization, and for every department. Perfection does not exist; the right path is to keep evolving and to learn from both our failures and our successes. This institute is fully committed to this approach and continues to evolve for the benefit of everyone.

What works well?
Great place to work, really inspiring with many possibilities to develop our understanding and knowledge of global international issues. Really good atmosphere and people are open to discussion.
What could be improved?
There is nothing relevant to share at this stage, but I may feel a lack of communication between services or not enough understanding that we are all part of the same company, and willing to make it grow.
