An eye opener learning curve
Link Africa is a good company work for. The working environment suits the need of the company. Co-workers are great persons to work with / under, they are all easy to reach from the CEO to supervisors. But what gives enjoy is giving the client end job. I have learned a lot more about creating a network backbone. With that all been said, there is always a room for growth. I feel it is time I spread my horizon.
Pros: link Africa values their employees. they given a chance to grow within the company
Cons: irregular working hours

Being Part of a startup company
Day start with staff meeting where a project plan per delivery is looked at to see if we still on track in terms of deliveries and a plan going forward, high level meetings will follow this where the work flow is discussed in terms of whats coming and what is getting delivered at the soonest dates. Relationship with co-workers is more on the family level since i was one the managers appointed to establish Gauteng branch, I have learned people management and to work and deliver under tremendous pressure. a lot of our staff members are kinda new on the telecommunication fibre build business and having mentored 19 students and seeing them all get contracts from the company was priceless for me. I could say transferring information to the up and coming youngsters is more fulfilling. The most challenging is managing contractors and meeting delivery dates which will then translate into happy clients, However it is great to close a project.
Pros: More growth with in the company
Cons: Uncooperating team
