Eskom is a nice company to work for , but the problem is staying in one position whereby you qualify for other position(Promotion). There are no challenges as you will be doing one or two things every day for me I need a position whereby I will be able to hard and be able to deliver in time what is expected of me not to work for a day or two all is done for the week. Eskom management wants to keep the employees in the business but they don't care about employee satisfaction or motivating employees.
Pros: What I enjoy, is doing my job in time and my co-workers are really supportive
Cons: You will stay in one position too long and even when you apply nothing is happening, that is why I am apply for other position in other companies

Great experience being at the construction site of Kusile power station.
It's a opening eye experience, being at the site of Kusile power station, seeing it coming alive by contributing my time, knowledge and previous experience. Meeting and associating with many kind of people from many cultures of around the world. The gaining of knowledge of how Philippines people work in chains to speed up production is a eye opening to the meaning of team work. The most challenging aspects of the Job here is the language barrier between Expatriate Engineers and other Co-workers from around the world.
Pros: Great experience for future references and job prospects.
Cons: Construction industry has very long hours and it's almost impossible to study futher.
