City of Cape Town Reviews

 

Learning curve

On a typical day you come in the morning and clock in at/before 07:30. Attend a meeting with a supervisor and other artisan to brief about previous jobs status and the new jobs you Have. After the meeting you go out on the field with a job card either to attend a breakdown or to do planned maintenance. The company doesn't have specified times for lunch and tea break. I usually had to work in a team to achieve most of the work so the relationship with Co workers was good. What I learned most was to always pay attention to detail as we worked with electricity and it can be dangerous if you are working recklessly and unsafe. Most challenging aspect is the long hours and you also have to deal with customers

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Working on standby and weekend

Good ROI

I have recently accepted a voluntary position at CIPS WC Branch as a board member (Part of the Student and education institution team), in order to help revive the CIPS brand and get as much exposure to the institution which has equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in the Supply Chain Field. Through this, I stay updated with current trends and knowledge, as well as network with prestigious individuals who have massive influence in procurement structure and willing to share knowledge and expertise. My aim is to work with your company ( in Supply Chain) and contribute by sharing my knowledge and experience whilst further educating myself, adding more value not only to myself, but also to the organization, which I believe will be beneficial to both parties.

Pros: Job security
Cons: Flat career growth

Excellent learning position

I'm a fieldworker for city of cape town, where i work with the homeless people on streets and trying to give them shelters or to reunite them with their family. I love working working with them because i am a people's person and like giving my helping hand where i can. I am passionate of with what i am doing and will strive to the best of my ability to help others. Working with my co-workers, i learn a lot from them as they are the permanent staff, we have a good understanding where it comes to work. I have learn to respect others and to help more, because living on streets it is very difficult and the struggle is real. Most challenging part is to work in dangerous areas.

Pros: Good oppertunity
Cons: Long working hours
