Growth
The work environment at ACSA (Airports Company South Africa) is a great place and my co-workers they are wonderful people and always will to help. I have learned so many things like which vendors support what within the Airport. And if a client is not sure I always go an extra-mile by investigating and provide the necessary information to the client without wasting anyone's time. What I enjoy the most about my job is making someone else day great, I always try my best to make that person feel welcomed. Because I believe whatever good thing we do end up building us. Most challenging aspect is when someone doesn't want to give me a chance to help them, meaning she/he wasn't getting the correct information, but in that case I always advise the user as well if ever I am not sure about something then I will investigate and provide more detailed information. Other than wasting someone time.
Pros: Team work
Cons: Working extra hour without being notified.
