Old Mutual has been an excellent learning curve for me
Being a financial advisor hasn't been easy but it has been an excellent learning curve as I now know things I never knew before. I am really enjoying my work there. my typical day is from 8am t0 4pm, my co-workers are also very competitive and we work very well together, what I enjoy the most is the challenge that I get from my job, it keeps me on my toes. The most challenging aspect is having to reach target each month
Pros: great opportunity and flexible hours
Cons: reaching target

Good working opportunities
Working at Old Mutual (OM) was an eye-opener, meaning that I learned a lot and implemented good controls and new system reports. It was fortunate to change manual process to automated processes. I developed a good working relationship with various levels of management (senior to junior) and that allowed me to achieve my goals and objectives. I am a quick learner and created many opportunities for myself. I learned various software packages, statutory and regulatory returns, compliance and governance requirements and many other soft skills acquired during my stay at OM. I enjoyed working with many skilled individuals such as IT personnel, Actuaries, Internal and External Auditors, Executive Management, Board of Trustees, Investment Brokers, Brokers, Re-Insurances Brokers and OM staff at large. The most challenging aspects of the job was the various deadlines set for me and meeting each one successfully.
Pros: Growth opportunities, open to new ideas, implementation of best practice.
Cons: Working with manual spreadsheets.

Pros: You determine your monthly salary: the harder you work the more money in your bank at the end of the month

Excellent
My relationship with colleagues is very good. My day work is not hectic throughout the day. I get very busy in the morning than in the afternoon. If I plan my tasks a week ahead, I sometime finish all of them in 3 days. I have learned a lot in my company; Customer services, treating clients fairly and with dignity, respect and pushing beyond boundaries. I enjoy new challenges, new initiative to test my ability and skills. Working with different from different backgrounds. Having to be tested by my manager to see if I would crack whatever task or challenge posed to me.
Pros: Good for growth
Cons: Lacking in development plans

Builds resilience
Working in the financial services industry is incredibly stressful as there are so many key factors that need to be adhered to so as to give the best possible financial advice to the clients whilst simultaneously trying to reach the set targets. It is because of this that the environment can become very stressful and somewhat challenging. However, it is through these challenges that one learns more about oneself and builds a tolerance when faced with negative situations.
Pros: High earning capabilities
Cons: N/A
