Excellent start of finance services
My review about my current work as a cashier is that I like the fact that it's an excellent learning curve about the business especially financially and it improves my computer skills hence I am computer literate. It's a nice experience since I am exposed to a lot of money and it makes me get used of working overtime since is December time and makes me learn working under pressure. Working as a team work is what I learned most "two minds are better than one". I enjoy helping people and I am always willing to go an extra mile to put a smile on someone face every day . That's all I can say
Pros: great opportunity to learn about an entity, financially and practical work
Cons: its not easy to be a parmanent worker

Great working Environment
Working at Ackermans is a typical working day where you learn something new everyday. The culture is great as work gets done in a fun yet professional day. All employees are friendly and supportive and you get to learn new skills on a daily basis from different types of personalities. I work with Finance Managers, Analysts, Accountants on a daily basis and every one of them have a different skill to teach which I am always willing to adopt and learn. I enjoy working with my team as we aim to promote a healthy working environment as we work well within the team as we work individually. We have our ups and downs as we all have different personalities but we strive to overcome our differences in sorting it out in a humane manner.
Pros: Great Working Environment
Cons: Growth

Great memories of a fond company
As a Supervisor, I was expected to plan for the next day . I requested the man power according to the the work load. I was also responsible for training the new stuff members. I was also responsible for performance management on individuals and collectively as a team. Listening , observing , giving instructions, giving feedback and taking feedbacks from staff, peers and superiors was a instrumental in keeping a professional relationship and synergy amongst all departments. I enjoyed the training part of my job as it allowed me to get to know the level of understanding of the stuff working with me. I learned that people have strengths and weaknesses in different areas of their work. I also learned about responsibility and accountabilities of the leader.
Pros: The company is dedicated in development of all staff
Cons: Salary needed improvement

At Ackermans as an employee you are given about six working departments every day .You work as a cashier,a shop assistant,a merchandiser,a packer and as a replenisher of a department and lastly as a cleaner because at the end of the day all the staff members should clean the store. I had a good working relationship with my co workers,and I've learned a lot from them too.I've learned to be a responsible person and work neatly and also learned to work as a team player.The most challenging aspects of my work was to handle difficult customers and to make sure that at the end they are happy customers.
Pros: Great opportunity for learning to multi task
Cons: Long working hours

Good working environment
It is a warm environment where I learnt a lot about my personality. I discovered my strengths and weaknesses. I have grown as a person and a professional in conduct and the way of thinking. I have developed good relations with my colleagues and often receive good advice from them. I enjoy the team challenges they often have, it brings people together and helps them know each other better. The challenge was the age gap, because there's often a clash of ideas between the young and the old generation.
Pros: Great environment to grow
Cons: Contract will expire
