Excellent opprtunity to work in acedemia and research
The position requires lots of time to analyse various samples on many different instruments. the lab staff compliment is quite small so the work load can accumulate. there is an excellent sense of camaraderie between all staff and management is flexible when there is a need by staff. I have learnt and still am in the process of learning all the new types of instruments that are available to use. There really is not any challenge and the biggest would be learning new techniques. I really enjoy the flexibility offered.
Pros: New instrumentation to learn on
Cons: No chance of growth

Recent graduate chemist looking for an opportunity to grow in a company or
I was afforded the opportunity to work as a vacation student at SASOL in Sasolburg in the Sastech R&D department, in Dec 2012 to Jan 2013 I worked in the catalysis group with Dr Peter Ledwaba and in Dec 2014 to Jan 2015 I worked in the coal and environmental department with Dr Lesego Moitsheki. The duties that I carried out were the synthesis of various copper catalysis and conduct a full characterisation, the sampling of various coal samples from the mines, the preparation of samples and conducting a full characterisation and comparison of coal samples. The time spent there have been invaluable considering the exposure to the industrial sector, networking with many scientist and engineers and the various analytical techniques that I had been introduced to such as powder XRD, XRF, AFT, TGA, SEM, Petrography etc.
Pros: I had the opportunity to publish a paper
Cons: Had a few stumbling blocks with respect to research but manage to persevere
