Old Mutual Corporate Reviews

 

Good opportunity and experience I need to get the breakthrough I'm looking for

I work in an office where it is just 3 of us. I have a pretty good relationship with my co-workers as we all understand and respect each other even though I'm the youngest. So far I have learnt a lot about managing one's finances especially when it comes to provident funds and schemes. I enjoy being challenged to complete a task or to meet a deadline. The most challenging thing about my job right now will have to be the fact that progression is not as fast as I had hoped it would be in terms of how much I'm being given to do and how much I'm learning from those tasks. I need a lot more to do so as to grow more. I'm hungry for experience and knowledge.

Pros: Great opportunity to kick0-start my career in the Finance , Investment and Insurance industry
Cons: I don't engage with clients as much as I would like to

Just a guy that love what I do

I am performance driven, Very dynamic and client focused. I have a high level of integrity. I act firmly and decisively. I thrive under pressure. I am intelligent and not scared to take initiative I have good interpersonal skills, Self-Motivated and I am a great team work player. I keep my promise and honor commitments. I am able to take responsibility for my own work as well as being able to demonstrate leadership when required. I keep a balance between a strong urge to get results and still make an effort to understand and respect others. I can become a valuable asset to not only to the section, but also to the organization in the whole due to my experience in general, if given a chance to exercise my capabilities. I can work independently and can deal with confidential professionally. “I LOOK FORWARD TO SHOW OFF MY SKILLS AND CAPABILITIES AS WELL AS TO PROVE I CAN BE AN ASSET TO THE COMPANY.”

Pros: To be able to assist clients
Cons: Am able to work overtime

Friendly environment, relaxed.

We get along very with colleagues we share knowledge and ideas. There are opportunities for growth but one has to move to a different province. The job is analytical in nature and requires an ability to communicate well, be organized and be able to create and maintain good relationships.

Pros: Flexible hours. Not demanding.
Cons: Long hours. Working alone. Limited growth opportunities.
