Inconvénients
CEZ has a excelent outside PR & marketing, many times most admired Czech company, creating aura of modern and dynamic international company, in reality post-socialistic monopoly miles away from being effective and internationaly integrated. As the most admired Czech employer, CEZ HR department succesfully continues to create this impression, in fact there is no real career trajectory at CEZ, promotion and rewarding is unclear, leaving upper management positions to McKinsey "mafia" friends, with no chance for hard working experts to penetrate those tight structures of nepotism. Corporate culture is struggling with its socialistic herritage, a lot of "talk" and no "walk". As in many state owned companies, responsiblility diffuses, and sometimes is seems there is no man in charge.
