Pros
- It is an Australian company, if that matters to anyone
Cons
- It is run by the son of the founder who has no idea what he is doing, and still runs a business like it is the early 1990s. He creates half-baked ideas and forces the entire business to pivot. When they fail, which they inevitably do, he blames everyone else. Predominantly, he blames the marketing team, despite lacking the proper leadership to create and execute business outcomes.
- Cult of leadership: where the entire company culture relies on acquiescing to the son of the founder (the Managing Director) and squashing dissent. This translates to an inability to accept any other ideas (or simply pretend to accept other ideas, while continuing to follow the son of the founders' idea instead).
- Low pay. It's significantly below market. Go elsewhere - they don't have much money to spare.
- The products deliver zero value to the market. The performance of the managed funds is a joke. Their flagship growth fund has underperformed for an entire decade.
- A lot of the 5-Star reviews appear to be written by the HR team.
