"What to expect ….. 1. Talent: You will be in a cesspool of third world, archaic minds that are not just culturally backward or intellectually challenged, but socially and professionally inapt. Basic management or strategic fundamentals are viewed as a threat. 2. Educational Accreditation: A degree acquired or bought from a third world country will have equal weightage to one from an Ivy League university when you compete for jobs. No standardized accreditation process exist in HR. So, buy a doctorate from Africa, and welcome aboard! 3. Nepotism & cultural affiliations: It’s not the right fit for the job, but building a coalition for survival and silos to protect and cover unethical behavior that takes precedence. Director from Addis Ababa will hire his adviser from Addis too. If you advertise for a position as a manager, expect all levels of management to influence (even dictate) your hiring decision. 4. Fraud is systematic: Segregation of duties is in concept only. You can literally pay yourself thousands of dollars over and above your entitlements, unnoticed or your coalition will vial it for you. ERP system is fundamentally & deliberately flawed. There are many cash benefits and every country/office/individual is allowed interpret policy to their self-advantage. Top line management makes the most, then, its trickle-down economics. It’s not viewed as stealing from children’s in need, but sold as admin cost avoidance and providing flexibility. If you are ethical, you will struggle! 5. Duty travel: If your work requires you to travel, Congrats, your salary just got doubled! It is standard practice to make up meetings, self-invite to events and travel with no legitimacy or show related results. Before you travel, avg. of $300-400 PER DAY spending allowance will be credited to you, with no receipts requirements to prove you spent it. You can stay with friends or YMCA, fly business class, downgrade yourself, and pocket the all money. Approximately 250 million"
