Good learning opportunities

III try my best as I can to keep a positive attitude towards my job and my co-workers. I choose to come to the office daily with a smile no matter how challenging sometimes it is. I try very hard to keep positive energy that helps others keep their enthusiasm. I regularly congratulate and encourage others to motivate them. My teamwork skills were not so good, so I opted to attend a two-day collaboration 101 training that gave me a better understanding of teamwork ideas and how to be a more efficient team player in whatever role that comes my way. This past year my team worked on the main areas that were very critical to the company. The key social responsibility committee and the customer service process. Our team emerged the best in successfully completing the challenging task and doing so promptly. I clearly communicate with clients to ensure the best customer service is provided. I know I have had problems with some demanding clients in the past, but it has only made me more confident in handling

Pros: Great Opportunity to learn
Cons: Unhealthy work environment

Engineering Stores Controller

My day is mostly controlled by the demand and assistant requested by others as I'm currently among the best users of SAP and my experience in Supplier management and keeping the relationship going. My relationship with colleagues is good they like asking for advise and how to solve queries. Solving issues supplier have with regards to payments Calming suppliers when they need answers on their payments is the challenge.

Pros: Procurement
Cons: Yes extra long

Great learning curve and exposure to the company's different facets

Being a part of a FMCG plant requires you to be on your feet from 7am to 5pm , and later should there be issues around the production plants. Its a great learning ground, with an intense learning curve. From operations to maintenance and project management, there is a good amount of knowledge to be learnt. I enjoy the dynamic nature and freedom and creativity to solve problems.

Pros: Great experience and an intense learning curve. Knowledge is gain regarding all facets of the business.
Cons: Long working hours. No room for growth due to current restructuring and retrenchments

Great introduction to a working environment.

It has been quite some experience, a beautiful one I must say. From day 1 a lot has been learned. Basically Unilever has taught me every thing about the work environment. What it means to be an employee, what it means to chase work targets, what it means to be part of a team, what it is like to take responsibility of your work station and to own it. I have been introduced to workplace language, from production terminology to body language. I have been taught about the importance of safety and quality delivery at workplace. Basically this company has taught every thing about being part of the employed class.

Pros: Massive growth, awesome benefits,
Cons: Night shift!!!
