Edcon Reviews

 

Excellent learning

I have learnt to multi tasks e.g learning a lot , working without supervision, managing the store while the manager is off duty. Giving figures to the staff in morning how much we made, whether we reached target or not, the most enjoyable part is when I had to cash up the cashier and I balance, the most challenging part is when you have to deal with difficult customers, and the exciting part is growth in the company when you get a promotion and you are given a prize you won for the target you reached during financial services.

Pros: busaries to further your studies
Cons: long working hours during stock counting
