MY OPNION ABOUT THE MUNICIPALITY
We work in a good environment and friendly colleagues. One of our main objective is service delivery and we make sure that we serve and support our clients in every circumstances. The most challenging is that the Municipality is always affected by political environment and there are constant changes in terms of structure depend on the political party that is running the municipality. It is a good company to work for and have good benefits. The most thing that I liked about it is that my superior was wiling to expose and develop staff in all aspects and as a person you must be willing and eager to accept the challenge and prove yourself, and also have positive attitude that the development is for your own benefit and the knowledge that you get will help you.
Pros: Great employer
Cons: Political environment

Excellent learning experience(it was a contract
there are many opportunities there, and you learn more about people and your self it's a great place to personal grow and know your surroundings. my relationship with my co- workers is extremely great as we treat each other as family and we share almost the same values. I've learnt that you must not judge a book by its cover e.g if you see someone angry and you start to assume that they're bad people because sometimes that person had just had a bad day. I enjoy typing at work and i guess i was faster more that any co-worker the most challenging aspect of the job is when your co-worker under performed that will also affect your performance so you have to help your co=worker and leave your work for a moment
Pros: great opportunities
Cons: it was just a contract
