Pros

Good exposure in your role Good networking opportunities Good bonuses (if you are wiling to work very hard for them) Tequila is always a winner!

Cons

Below market related salaries Top heavy Company structure involves different business units with different cost centres thus creates complexity. Front office requires CA degree (masters does not count) Company benefits are not great - 1. private bank account carries a staff fee of R220 pm. 2. Staff do not get medical aid or pension benefits (you cover 100%) 3. No special rates on vehicle or property financing.

Pros

Entrepreneur mindset that allows you to grow outside your specific box, if you choose. Supportive leadership in helping you achieve your goals.

Cons

Have to pull for growth, not handed to you. You have to be aggressive and ask for what you need.
