Excellent learning experience
Working at ABSA was a tremendous experience. In the 6 months being there I have experienced great staff interactions. We took inbound calls on short term insurance which could get hectic at days when we have bad weathers. I enjoyed the work experience the most ad I was no so much exposed to the inbound insurance environment. The challenge faced was abandoned calks and SLA dropping due to high call volumes and short staff
Pros: Great company to work for
Cons: Short staffed

Good work-life balance and competent staff
Good competent colleagues with great working relationships. Good work life balance with flexible hours and including the option of working from home as the need arises. Typical work day sis a 9 to 4:30. The company is still trying to find it itself so unfortunately departments seem to work in silos with little collaboration or a unified culture. Bank benefits are good such as staff interest rates and no bank charges unfortunately individual performance is not rewarded. Staff and management are generally advance in years with very few young persons as well as very few opportunities for promotion
Pros: Depending on your team work life balance is very good
Cons: Not much opportunity for promotion and not much reward for performance either
