Excellent experiential opportunity
Working at Tourvest has been a great, it is a medium sized company where everyone is close to each other and treated like family. It is a laid back environment where individuals are allowed to be themselves and fit in. The was opportunity for growth and self improvement as training sessions were made available to all employees. I enjoyed the social activities that took place to ensure team building and a spirit of togetherness. A Typical work day will include 8 and half hours with training sessions in between. What I've learned from Tourvest is that it is very important to empower yourself as an individual irrespective of the amount knowledge it can be. The most challenging aspect of the job was that the system we worked on was an international system which requires experts however we were trained to master the skills of working on the system.
Pros: Great opportunity for self employment
Cons: None

Excellent Knowledge Gained
Working at Tourvest has been an amazing journey however due to the travel industry being hit so hard, I am forced to look outside of this industry for the betterment of my career and finances. Tourvest has a very positive upbeat and casual environment and my colleagues are all team players.
Pros: Growth opportunities
Cons: Long working hours

Great culture and diversity being embraced
Daily tasks involve developing and maintaining the company internal and external applications. B2B sites and self learning newer technologies. Workers relationship is very nice together with the environment, most challenging is having to meet the deadline. Every Friday there's an hour of a mini activity called knowledge friday where a selected employee based on the list presents something new that could educate other staff about things out there in the world
Pros: Performance review
Cons: Company doesn't close, never meets salary target
