Business Outlook

Pros

Generally very pleasant people, and some highly talented people. ESG agenda is ethical and genuine. Emphasis on kindness, which is real in most cases, but in others its clearly fake.

Cons

Despite almost constant transformation over the past few years, its not widely felt that there is a strong 'stand alone' future for Anglo. In the most recent round of redundancies (which won't be the last) some very odd appointments were made based on what is viewed as favouritism over merit or expertise. Leadership and communication could be much stronger. If 3 days min per week office attendance is mandatory, make sure leaders set the example and 'walk the walk'. They took their new roles on that basis, so don't make it one rule for leaders and another for the rest. They need to be present to improve morale.
