No learning as you do just for production to be in a factory environment

The company was not giving opportunities enough to prospective employees of certain groups. And affected the most by unions leading to strikes unnecessary

Pros: Limited promotion, and you get stucked in one discipline.
Cons: Mhhh 12 hour shifts

I dont think i am paid enough for mr level.

When i first worked at aberdare it was good for the first 5 -7 years but after that the pay grade was not increased. i was the only driver for the company and i was no longer allowed to work overtime. Which is why i now want to leave the for another company. Ihave been doing my work very good doing deliveries without accident for 12 years going as far as johannesburg and coming back safe and having done the job but i was never appreciated for my work. It nice working at aberdare as the company but over the years my department has been transffered from ine person to the next and i have had to deal with different people everytime as they came and took charge.

Pros: Not allowed opportunity to grow.
Cons: Normal working hours
