The company gave me a chance to gain experience.

The company offers opportunity to young people to gain experience and further their studies. It offers no growth opportunities to those looking to expand or build their careers. There is no succession planning of any sort done by the company. Compensation is not fair and salary increments are nor fairly given to people according to performance. No appreciation is shown for going the extra mile in one's position.

Pros: Flexible working hours
Cons: No growth oppotunities, poor compensation

Good start from school

It is a fine company.workers respect each other team work is very important. Sometimes most workers feel they are not given opportunities to grow .workers on the shop floor work long hours and sometimes work double shift and not paid the shift allowance and fatigue allowance not given to the employees. Management still have apartheid. They treat black people bad. The people working at the shop floor respect each other they welcome new members warm. They really make the place remembered if you not at work. They treat each other like family. They support each other during hard times. Workers are there for each other

Pros: miner opportunity for promotion
Cons: long working hours
