ING reviews

Long history of harassment, bullying and blackmailing, covered by the management, whose authors are promoted. Particularly low level in terms of knowledge, the management having problems with basic concepts. Absence of integrity, independence, human skills, agility, respect, communication, connection with the reality, team spirit and technologies. Focus on what does not matter and let go what does. The internal policies are simple make-up and not enforced. Weekly meetings to question the employees' health, department meeting to present the holidays of the managers.

When I say work life balance I mean people coming in at 10 and leaving at 4 and running personal errands throughout the day. Welcome to ING. There is hardly any gender diversity especially in senior management. Even though the environment is supposed to be international, it is a lot easier to progress if you are white, male and speak Dutch of which I am not. Once a manager even told me when I was pregnant that I should stay at home and look after my child. HR tends to side with their own. Bad management cascades down from the top. More often than not, I hear my direct manager suffer the same fate as me but it seems like since his manager did nothing to alleviate his 'pain', he could not do much or is following the example of his manager. Also seen enough selfish managers in my time for example one who blatantly told me he does not care about my personal development as it is not beneficial to him.
