CusCompany is a National Department t but the staff is various department is reluctant to do their work properly. If regional and district offices needs documents they have to wait on head office. The normal process normally is within yhe time frame but we got a lot of enquiries that head office don't always want to fix. tomer service and customer support.

Progressive Organization and a good industry to learn around

I learn a lot from my colleagues and even made friends so far. We share ideas as a team, it can be work related or personal. I learned to prioritize issues and also to be able to respond to incidents according to organization's protocols. I enjoy being in a field than to be in an office as my job requires more technical job at hand than admin or paper work The most challenging of my job is to drive around trying to reach user's end point to actually find out what they are experiencing in a situation where they are unable to describe their problem telephonically

Pros: Good environment to work at
Cons: I prefer short working hours with 100% complete job
