Excellent learning environment
It is a nice environment that gives me a chance to learn new things. The environment is highly pressurised and needs a highly strong person with experience. Relationship building plays a very important role. The working relationship with all my business partnes and colleagues is very strong. What I enjoy the most is the on going projects and challenges within the areas I look after.
Pros: Great opportunity of operating at a high position
Cons: long working hours

I have learnt alot at my work place
Mondays are very slow and long because there are no customers at all. The relationship with co-workers is good we always encouraging one another to be the best. I have learnt to be selfish when it comes to sales otherwise i will never reach my targets. I enjoy mostly to be my own boss making my own decisions. When i don't have stock its a nightmare and head office is not answering the phone and customers are in front of me.
Pros: More experience
Cons: Overtime and weekends
