Good working environment

We are deadline driven. All staff are adequately trained in their working areas. As a team we work well together. We are very efficient and effective in out daily tasks. For the past 23 years of employment I have formed many relationships which has had positive effects on my work. Being part of IT Validation Team I have had the opportunity to become quite acquainted with all computer systems used which have benefited me well over the years. I enjoy being challenged in my work because I have a very investgative and enquiring mind, I always like to figure and examine the end results. Validating /Qualifying a new system that meets the. Business's requirement is very challenging because the business is the IT Department's main customer who we need to satisfy.

Pros: Good learning opportunities.
Cons: No room for growth and improvement.

Good for someone that has reached their peak in their carerr

Working at Aspen involves a lot of consultations and co-working due to the large number of employees at the company. One has to deal with a lot of interactions with different people at different levels. It's very important that one has a good relationship with co workers because your performance could solely depend on their work. It's very important that the work ethic is maintained and that your work is reliable because the work one does is not only for themselves but that product goes out to the world and helps others. one would want to make sure that whatever is produced is of the very best quality.

Pros: Sometimes there is growth
Cons: Shifts

Excellent learning curve

Working @the company is great because there are opportunities. But there work is routine kind of work. the workers are very friendly and we like family. I have learn that in order for any one to grow in the company one needs to work hard and be present and work @all tome and punctuality is the key , honesty , integrity and team work. What i enjoy most is the time of month end i like the rush and the adrenaline deadline and recovery rush. the most challenging part is the salary that does not meet my every day expenditures and i have to work a lot of overtime in order for me to have the salary i need.

Pros: Great chances of promotion
Cons: Long working hours to make cash
