National Empowerment Fund Reviews

 

Ambitious and goal driven

working in government is a daily pressure and daily deadlines . there are so many legislation procedures to follow and this is upsetting to our clients daily i have to explain why payment is not going to be on time as no procedures were followed dealing with supply chain and other departments on raising purchase orders getting invoices signed off , capturing thereof , processing and preparing payment as well as loading payment ,overseeing that smaller amounts below R50k are being processed by administrator , reviewing and approving the payments before uploading onto bank . Tight month end procedures closure before the 3rd of the new month preparing accruals based on open purchase orders , creditor statements and age analysis . Preparing age analysis vs creditor statements to ascertain which have overdue items not submitted.

Pros: high performance rating
Cons: filling on time

Working Environment

Having worked at the National Empowerment Fund, I have learned a lot in terms of culture and environmental. Each person feels welcomed even at the first day of joining the organisation. I have developed a good working relationship with the team and we are able to share information without fear. The NEF gives a person and opportunity to grow in terms of studies and promotions and we are allowed to work flexible hours.

Pros: Bonuses
Cons: Long working hours

Excellent learning curve

I enjoy analysing and working on business transaction. What I enjoy the most is risk analysis, market analysis and financials. I enjoy working in an environment where one is able to work on transactions individually and within a team. My current relationship with my co-worker is very enjoyable and they actually make one to look forward to going to work. What I find most frustrating about mu job is analysing an application that can have merit but the applicant refuses to take the inputs.

Pros: good opportunity and growth.
Cons: new environment

Moderate Learning Curve

I have bad experience when it comes to grasping the assisgned tasks as the colleagues are on a roll and look irritated when I ask questions or more information on task I am given, in a sense that it is due to work load. So learning at the NEF is not easy. I ahve an okay relationship with the co-workers in the unit, and haven't pinpointed what I like about this opportunity.

Pros: Good remuneration
Cons: No clear career path and less opportunity for learning and development
