Hidden gem - Associate Professor KIMEP University Employee Review

Excellent colleagues, rewarding experience, good salary

Very bureaucratic, sometimes disorganized, sometimes limited resources

Two days on the faculty of Kimep

The University does not honor offers and job contracts. Senior management is taken over by capricious and incompetent transplants from North America, despite Kimep being a nominally government university. Local staff is cowed by them to such a degree that they are afraid to talk without permission of those they call "higher-ups". The situation is more reminiscent of a religious sect than a University. Written and signed offer means nothing and can be rescinded on a whim.
