      Lots of promise and no delivery

      Pros

      A global footprint and a wide range of risks provides a great platform for resilience and disaster management experience. The large corporate presence makes it easier to meet with government agencies and be heard.

      Cons

      Australians are in most of the key positions and appoint their own people rather than the best. Personal agendas and power bases undermine work being done and work completed. The lack of integration and the poor back office systems often make it difficult to get basic things done. They take forever to pay suppliers. Little or no worklife balance despite the frequent mouthing of the words. Safety is a bureaucratic concept that is selective in its application to make a real difference.

      Pros

      The "working bees" of the company are some of the best (in terms of skill, knowledge and work ethics) in the industry

      Cons

      The current management does not care about the development of the employees, people are just a number
