I do like working for Eskom, it is just that I dont see any grown and promotion.

I have a good working relationship with my co-workers. I have learned a lot with regards to handling customers and their queries. The company on it's own doesn't have a problem. It is a good company to work for. especially the benefits that come with it.

Pros: Great opportunity for futrthering your studies as they pay for them.
Cons: the company does not close on December like other companies.

Opportunity to learn and be good at managing your resources and deliver on time

The organisation offers great training and experience for graduates, depending on the job description a typical day for a project manager consist of project planning, financial forecasts, budgeting, meetings with stakeholders, writing progress reports etc. Because one work with diverse teams communication is crucial and building rapport with the team. One has to learn to multitask as there are requests to be attended to on a daily basis as well as administrative work for each project. Main challenges include delivering the project outputs on time as well as getting the authorizations e.g Water Use Licences and Environmental Impact Approvals, which has a big impact on project delivery dates.

Pros: Opportunity to develop project management skills
Cons: Long working hours, pressure to deliver within budget and on time

My time working at Eskom was a learning curve for me.

A typical work day was goingto the office every morning to get job orders from the dispatch then go to site. Eskom encourages team work because almost everything is done with a work partner or in a group - I have learnt that safety is important as you work with live electricity. - I enjoyed everything about working at eskom and the most department I enjoyed working were metering and telecontrol. - Testing an equipment was a challenge because you cannot just assume that a certain part is faulty.

Pros: Great opportunity for growth
Cons: Taking too many learners and not be able to appoint them permanently.
