Pick a Side

What happened?

AMP hires a former ANZ veteran as partnerships manager, hoping for quick wins in mortgage broking. This move looks like AMP scrambling to catch up with rivals.

Oppose

Some might argue this hire shows strategic foresight and strengthens relationships within the industry. But think of it as putting lipstick on a pig; they're trying too hard to look good without addressing core issues.

Risk

Hiring someone just for their name undermines internal talent development.

Future

This hire could trigger more poaching in banking circles if it's seen to work for AMP short-term. But ultimately, it sets up future instability as employees question their value at the firm.

Predict

AMP will see a brief uptick from brokers but long-term, this move isolates loyal staff and erodes internal cohesion. The tribal split: Those who need quick wins cheer; those grounded in company culture revolt against such superficial tactics.

Context

Pulse Insight

This hiring feels like AMP trying to buy loyalty with an ex-ANZ bigwig. They're banking on this guy's connections but it smells of panic and won't last long.

Worse still,
will customers see through the desperation?

Hidden Trade-off

AMP is trading short-term gains with long-time staff loyalty. They risk alienating existing employees who see this as a favoritism move, not merit-based hiring.

The real cost here isn't just money but morale and trust within the ranks.
