The Foschini Group Reviews

 

Good training ground

A really good company to learn and grow. Not the most fair of employers. A lot of favouritism being shown. A lot of nepotism as well. I would definitely have to review my reason for staying if I decide to do such within the next few months

Pros: Solid foundation
Cons: Discrimination on promotion based on skin colour

Good Communication skills and Good interpersonal relationship

Working for TFG is like working at home as all staff members treat each other like family. I've learnt more, including good communication skills aspecially when coming to customer service and sometimes it's challenging when it comes to difficult customers, we need to be more patient and relaxed to resolve their issues. Every customer is important. I enjoy team work because we share more ideas.
