Growth and development
Standard bank is great company to work for. And I have been a consultant for the past 4 years. I worked 170 hrs per month but normally exceeded my working hours due to follow ups and some other administrative duties. I used to have a great relationship with all my colleagues and manager, we were one. I have learned a lot in short space of time, I was even assisting the prestige banking when the prestige banker is off sick or on leave. What I enjoyed mostly is to closely with my line manager as she taught me a lot on how to grab opportunities and growing yourself as individual within the organisation. The most challenging aspect were just late lunches when we very busy and no one could relief us or assist us.
Pros: Learning curve and taking a different role to learn more about other entities.
Cons: Taking late lunch

Being a Quality Assurance Consultant at Standardbank
My day to day Job entails me listening to Outbound Sales calls done by our Sales team in order to assess the quality of calls and identify any risk and compliance gaps on those calls. Should there be any Risk or Compliance gaps identified, a report for coaching is sent out and client is contacted in order to correct the information provided. I work well with my team as I have an open door policy where my team has access to reaching me for assistance or guidance on what they might not be sure off. I engaged with them by having weekly connect sessions in order to iron out obstacles. What I have learned in my roles people skills, communication and building on relationships is very importance and if you don't have that then you wont survive in the role. What Is challenging is having to deal with agents that constantly chase after numbers instead of quality of the call however training and coaching becomes a continuous intervention with those particular individuals.
Pros: Grown and development is vital to any employee therefore everyone is working towards improving themselves and getting on the next level in terms of their careers
Cons: Working weekends is not an option unless its urgent matters that requires your attention

Good for growth and discipline
For me as a typical day a work is when I processed so many deposits and withdrawal on a single day,we work different shifts so the relationship with co-workers is minimal,Since working for the bank I've learnt that banks are making to much money over people debts and they encourage debts from people,I enjoy facing people and hear their views and some encouraging you to be more in your life,however I'm not passionate about banking.What challenging is to convince customers to be in debt for the bank to make more profit.
Pros: Caring environment
Cons: Working shifs and doing one thing
