Pros

Small, entrepreneurial group with the benefits of a balance sheet and a larger bank behind it. Focus on mining and commodities, but focus on other areas as well.

Cons

Unclear strategy and uncertain commitment to Asia. Surprising amount of politics for such a small operation. People fired all the time based on the whims of senior management in London and South Africa.

Pros

Large company Potential for lots of different career paths Exposure to most senior levels of leadership in the organisation

Cons

Lack of clear and active accountability due to unclear roles / responsibilities (lots of potential duplication of functions) Not great at learning from mistakes with culture 'set in it's ways' Nothing happens without a meeting first
