      Australian gravy train

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - global footprint and pretty good salary/work ratio; great business class travel and ability to stay at expensive hotels

      Cons

      - Australian company pretending to be global, but run by Perth boys that have very little understanding of Africa, Latin America, etc. so they make terrible acquisitions and hire (and only listen to) people just like themselves and then scapegoat the outsider, non-Australians when things go wrong - lets internal politics cloud judgement and strategy; - a lot of lip service on diversity but there is no real management buy-in or monitoring, incentivizing of an open-minded culture and breadth of views -the more senior person wins even if they were the ones that were behind huge mistakes such as Alcan acquisition.
