A learning curve to see other industry

Meeting with staff member to discuss daily work , planned jobs, safety requirements have a good relationship with management, fellow employees and contractors 11 months with current company, it was a new challenge as I come from a distribution background where I have worked for 26 years and then retrenched. Current company is very quality driven , but also another way of achieving goals. I enjoy implementing new policies and procedures, but also working together with management and employees to achieve our goals and be productive in what we do. At the end , we are all striving to make the company profitable and also saving costs. Time frames are very important , but certain aspects of the job is to allow for other parts of the business first priority before you can achieve your own goals and commitments.

Pros: Not a difficult company to work for, employees are friendly and helpfull.
Cons: salaries not market related for all races. no bonus, no mediacl aid, no pension funds, 10 months without permanent employment, still on contract

Pharmaceutical - new experience , previously in FMCG

Every day has its own challenges, some employees and managers are difficult of nature and has to be dealt with in a manner that they feel they are the customer and have to be satisfied. My relationship with both employees and management is good and mutual respect is very important. I have learned to deal with all kinds of people, despite gender, race and religious relieves. Working with all types of people and to serve and treat them in respectful manner – thereby achieving results from most people. The mind set of some employees / co- workers cannot always be changed , especially in older people who are set in their ways, convincing people not always possible

Pros: working only 4 days per week
Cons: no opportunity for promotion , traveling to work extensive

No room for professional growth

My work day starts at 7:30, pretty much the same as any other company where we are a diverse group of people. I get along with all my co-workers. I enjoy the fact that it is 5min from home. The reason I want to move along, is that we do not have any benefits and I need to increase my income as I am not coping.

Pros: Close to home
Cons: No opportunity for promotion, no benefits

Lots of experience

This company is good if you want to get experience. The salaries are an issue. If there were more benefits then the company would be more appealing. The salary packages do not come with benefits and the potential for promotion is very limited.

Pros: Experience
Cons: Salary
