South African Post Office Reviews

 

Excellent automotive experience

I actually review process flows and process maps, i device better ways of using workers and machines, i apply lean, eliminate wasteful activities, i do total quality management, I do observations per station and try to improve the current ways of operating to a better one/continuous improvement. I like interacting with my colleagues, both office and floor colleagues. It makes the day worth spent at work. Together we are a strong team. I like it when I involve them especially when I'm about to implement something new on the operational floor. They always give their opinions with a open heart and I make sure I take those opinions and use them to my advantage.

Pros: Great opportunity to learn
Cons: Working overtime and shifts

Turning around the Post Office to return to profitability which is both challenging and exciting.

My typical work day starts with checking emails and meetings for the day that I check a day before so that I prepare myself. I have a meeting with my Executive for Sales to check on urgent activities that I need to attend to and where he needs assistance with Board and EXCO presentations. I will follow up on outstanding activities that team has not completed via emails. My relationship with co-workers is very professional. I have learnt in my current company is marketing in a different industry wherein mail is slowly declining and being replaced by digital solutions and have to provide the market with the new digital solutions. I am part of the team that is turning around the Post Office to return to profitability. I enjoy the implementation of digital solutions that is underway for the market which is going to reposition the Post Office in the minds of consumers. Implementing change is the most difficult task.

Pros: team work and being a change agent for the Post Office without resources to support you
Cons: employees resisting change, no support from HR, slow implementation of crucial activities, long and tediuos process to get signatures

High Performance Culture

I enjoyed working for the SA Post Office , workers at this SOC are a family. Working hours were reasonable if one refer to Labour Relations Act. It was sometimes my commitment to go extra miles in order to assist fellow co-workers to meet daily targets. I have learned several skills to apply in management of today to align my self with the fast moving world in terms of technology. The most challenging aspects of the job was to be left out in making decision but expected to manage unhappy employees, as an obligation I applied skills I acquired to overcome those daily challenges.

Pros: Review of performance contract on time
Cons: Poor internal communication channells

Stagnant growth opportunity

The family based culture of care and guidance is great, yet the opportunity for personal growth is rare due to various factors. The more you know the more work is given to you at the expense of your health and time. Generally a positively enjoyable place to work at.

Pros: Great family culture
Cons: Unfair work load allocations.
