I know a lot of people who work at the OECD and the place is a bullshit-factory.

Do they have any specific reasons? Haven't heard that sentiment before so curious to learn something new

My impression is that they have a lot of careerist people who say the right things even if they don't really understand what they're saying. And because the scope of research is so broad, a lot of the management managing these people are either generalists and thus can't evaluate the work or also bullshitters.
