Eskom Reviews

 

I do like working for Eskom, it is just that I dont see any grown and promotion.

I have a good working relationship with my co-workers. I have learned a lot with regards to handling customers and their queries. The company on it's own doesn't have a problem. It is a good company to work for. especially the benefits that come with it.

Pros: Great opportunity for futrthering your studies as they pay for them.
Cons: the company does not close on December like other companies.

Mr

Eskom generates approximately 95% of the electricity used in South Africa and approximately 45% of the electricity used in Africa. Eskom generates, transmits and distributes electricity to industrial, mining, commercial, agricultural and residential customers and redistributors. Additional power stations and major power lines are being built to meet rising electricity demand in South Africa. Eskom will continue to focus on improving and strengthening its core business of electricity generation, transmission, trading and distribution. Eskom buys electricity from and sells electricity to the countries of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The future involvement in African markets outside South Africa (that is the SADC countries connected to the South African grid and the rest of Africa) is limited to those projects that have a direct impact on ensuring security of supply for South Africa. ​

Pros: sustainability
Cons: electricity demands

I have gained both technical and managerial experience over the years.

I manage my technicians/subordinates, manage, monitor and assess IT network, server and database infrastructure and all IT assets in the business. Manage applications/systems availability. Liaise and serve customers (have more that 1000 user to serve in my business unit) Ensure IT strategy implementation at BU level. Manage IT Projects (planning, design, implementation and support) I have a great relationship with my subordinates and peers since I have an open door policy. Managing new applications or services that add value to the client is what I enjoy the most.

Pros: There's always work to do as we have many users(+1000)
Cons: Work no longer challenging as I have been managing this business unit for more than 7 years

Great experience being at the construction site of Kusile power station.

It's a opening eye experience, being at the site of Kusile power station, seeing it coming alive by contributing my time, knowledge and previous experience. Meeting and associating with many kind of people from many cultures of around the world. The gaining of knowledge of how Philippines people work in chains to speed up production is a eye opening to the meaning of team work. The most challenging aspects of the Job here is the language barrier between Expatriate Engineers and other Co-workers from around the world.

Pros: Great experience for future references and job prospects.
Cons: Construction industry has very long hours and it's almost impossible to study futher.
