Working at the AGSA
People are in general friendly and focused. There are good perks like leave and other things like life insurance. The company is however extremely focused on transformation and very little if at all other than black racial groups are newly employed. It is also not possible to get a promotion to a higher level if you are not black.
Pros: Good perks
Cons: No career advance if you are not black
