A great well-rounded learning experience
It has been an excellent opportunity. I have learnt the general operation of business, from investments, risk, pricing and modeling perspectives. I am looking for a more specialized role, where I can get cracking on that specific role in business. I have dealt with mostly pricing and it has indeed been a complex opportunity. I am well pleased, but it is time to move on to greater heights. A typical day includes a morning daily pricing that ends at 11, on Monday and Tuesdays there is Buy/sell trades that are done in the morning. There are monthly deliverables,like lapses reports and pricing for the month. The least favorite part of the job is their inability to prioritize people issues. The environment isn't great when it comes to the working culture.
Pros: Great opportunity for technical skills
Cons: Little opportunities for growth

Nee challenge
I started with liberty on the first of October 2016. It's been an absolute pleasure to learn all about the products. This is an amazing job and so much to learn and grow. I get along well with my co-workers. We don't see each other on a daily basis though , because we go out and see clients. I enjoy meeting new people and travelling to destinations I've never been before
Pros: Meet new people
Cons: Commission based

This has been a great but tough learning experience both on a professional and personal level
The career of a financial advisor is tough and the reward is less than the effort. A large part of the business is sales, and as important as sales is, without an already established network, sales can be very tough. Sales is an important aspect in life however, if you do not have a passion for the sale of risk insurance you are going to have a hard time as a financial advisor. I enjoy my work colleagues however not enough effort was out in from my manager to assist my understanding the workings of my work. I have learnt a lot about the way people interact and about pressure from the superiors. I have learnt that I enjoy engaging with people and that I need to be out of my comfort zone in order to grow. I am not one that likes to give up easily however I have been trying without success for some months now and am not finding success. I have realised that without the passion for risk insurance, the career as a financial advisor is not for you.
Pros: Flexible work hours
Cons: No leads or salary

Good opportunity to enhance my skills
LIBERTY life is a great company to work for..I have learned a lot from it and the culture of the is awesome. I started at Liberty as Business Analyst, and that assisted me in understanding the business itself and it's requirements and how that can be transformed into IT. I have worked in team and have been a good team player.Due to the business being in Cape Town I was then moved to Testing which is what I am doing now. The most challenging aspect of being a Tester is when Developers don't agree that the is a bug in their code.
Pros: Staff recognition
Cons: Delay on clarification of issues and long working hours
