All about progress

I work as an junior web developer, my duties are to develop websites and maintain existing ones. I work with other graduate developers, we are all ambitious and we love what we do. During my time I have learned to embrace positive change or innovation as we would call it. The part that I love most at work is when we get together with other junior developers to share innovative ideas and their execution.

Pros: Great exposure
Cons: Not enough growth after a certain stage

Company turnaround

In my current position at TIA my mission is to turn the company around and have thus far been very successful. I have been able to produce clean unqualified audits. Being the 6th CEO in a very young company, just 5 years old when I joined, the company morale was extremely low. My challenge to turn the company around has been quite a task. Although a difficult task I believe that the company’s path has changed and slowly but surely the company is heading to success.

Pros: Workaholic
Cons: Workaholic
