Learning through hard working

Working at Sovereign Foods is a great experience and challenging sometimes. I am managing employees that are even have more experience than me and sometimes they would believe they know it all, that gives me strength to be always hands on and aware of everything around work environment to avoid any manipulations from staff. At work I ensure proper performance of daily activities but I still have good work relationship with my employees. I give traings to employees such as Safety talks and that is what I enjoy most. Also that they depend on me for job instructions make me do planning everyday and I enjoy working on good planning.

Pros: I started working for the company as a student and through hard work and commitment I was further promoted to be a relief supervisor within few months, that did not stop my hardwork and I was further given a Supervisor position that I am currently in. I worked for the company for quite a long time and now understands its culture. There are high chances of promotions as I now know how to work independently and still meet the key performance indicators of the company
Cons: 9 hours

Learned a lot from the company

I generally write reports using BI Tools. Everyday I must channel my thinking to being analytic and logical. This involves a lot of SQL and hard coding. Interaction with people is when I give support to the various business operations such finance, when the system is not updating the current financial balances or when sales cannot create orders or the system. Fun times are facilitating the training when there is a new system being implemented. I have been told our work makes other peoples'work more easier! Provide platforms to get information quicker and more accurately!

Pros: Exposure o all company divisions and operations
Cons: BI department not yet fully established.
