Basil Read LTD Reviews

 

A good and generally stable company to work for

I had exposure to the HR Admin function for the first four years at the Company at a stage when we had limited resources which proved to be very challenging with late nights and understaffed divisions. I was offered the opportunity to move to the International HR division which in turn was very exciting. With new acquisitions and subsidiaries added to the company there was a bit of confusion with regards to company culture. I have good and strong relationships with various colleagues and I learned to persevere and find practical solutions to problems as well as to resolve and handle conflict and diverse situations. I like the challenges my position as HR Manager brought for the past five years, but working in one division did limit my exposure to the rest of the company as a whole.

Pros: I was fortunate enough to have been promoted three times while employed at the company
Cons: Historically a male dominated environment with not many opportunities for females to develop or excel

Excellent Learning curve

I enjoy working with my team. Everyone is proficient at what they do, which makes completing the project on time possible. We start our day with a 06:30 production meeting, discussing the needs for each team for the day. This helps us share plant and resources to everyone's satisfaction. I then proceed to walk thru site and this helps me order materials and resources to keep the team on site moving forward.

Pros: I deal with Civil, Mechanical and Electrical aspects of the construction of a water treatment plant
Cons: Long Hours
