Pros

Not too much stress about actual work... I can't say I have ever been overwhelmed during my time there. The brand is growing every day and could become a nice line on your curriculum

Cons

Very old school hierarchical system, as sexist as a financial company can get, no room for change and youth. Fake company identity sold in and outside the office. Lack of fluidity because of the micromanagement and - weirdly - completely unmonitored functioning of some entities (geographically or functionally distant). Definitely not recommended to someone who's looking for an inspiring team. That said, I hope Candriam will grow and give some room to NEW ideas, NEW employees and NEW ways of working.

Many thanks for the feedback and for your appreciation of our CEO’s performance. We agree with you 100% – building a modern asset management company with a responsible DNA needs IT systems favouring agility.
