Hours are long
I am an ambitious woman whom has received the opportunity to study towards a qualification in chemical engineering at one of the most prestigious University of Technologies in the country. I have had a great opportunity to work in production, quality and risk departments. Having started my career as a machine operator and having undergone career development by working in the SHEQ department, I can say I am eloquent in understanding the dynamics of production. My academic background also makes me well knowledge in production planning and improving productivity. These are skills I have that I can utilize to help the company reach its targets and goals.
Pros: At least am employed
Cons: Long working hours

Gaining experience
Good day To whom it may concern Working at distell is good for gaining experience but the work is limited there are days that I don't even get called in for work and leads to a huge loss in my pocket . I am hard working and would like to work everyday to earn a full salary but working in these conditions won't allow me too .
Pros: Great opportunity to gain experience
Cons: Not even getting work on some days.

I manage to learn and enjoy every busy moment
We worked as a family. I also had the opportunity to work out side my work space evolving myself in other duties and helping other departments. Every day was a challenge. Distell is changing their way of working and i was lucky to be apart of most of the changes. I learned in my self that their is nothing i cant learn and master on my own. I enjoyed logistics the most as it cover a big range of different challenges everyday. The biggest challenge was the internal changes you had to keep an open mind and adapt fast. People i feel relied om me to stay with the changes so i can give the other support. The DSD transport system was the most challenging but i got it. To name the stuff i did in a day i find impossible. I worked with sales, warehouse, logistic, customer service, credit control, transport department, out side transporters, IT .......Resolving queries, helping with documentation, sorting stock, pulling sales figures for customers.... thanks
Pros: Learning, promotion, people i worked with
Cons: the heart sore of seeing people leave and the time that it was for me to leave

Everday is an adventure
Working with a diverse group of people, you learn something everyday. In a customer facing environment no two days are the same. Time management is very important to get through all your commitments. KPI trackers are daily motivators to succeed and reach targets.
Pros: Great company to work for
Cons: No much room for growth
