Discovery Financial Consultants Reviews

 

I always get to the office early, consider my relationship with my co-workers to be professional.

I always try to get to the office early in order to schedule my day. I consider my relationship with my co-workers to be easy going and professional mostly. I have learnt to be tolerant and compassionate when dealing with clients, also to treat every query from clients with urgency and always provide feedback and if I don't have feedback due to SLA's I have to always let the client know. I enjoy communication with different people on a daily basis. Most challenging is when clients are angry and don't want to reasonable explanation for the delay in service.

Pros: I get to communicate with different people on a daily basis
Cons: Long working hours

Opportunity for growth, result oriented,

A typical day at work is filled with laughter and the environment is conducive and great. My relationship with co-workers is great because we work as a team not competitors. We always help each other if and when a problem presents itself. I have learnt not to take the job too personal because some clients are rude or shout at you so i developed an attitude where I move to the next client without hard feelings. I enjoy talking to people and laughing along the way. I also enjoy talking to different kinds of people on a daily basis. The most challenging aspect is getting a client who just want to make it hard for me and belittle the job I do. We sometimes get clients who threaten to sue us.

Pros: Opportunity for growth
Cons: systems change anytime

In all honesty, the biggest thing I've learnt is error costs money. Multitasking is a norm.

The work environment is unhealthy and highly stress while being educational at the same time. Respect, Tactfulness and work ethics are without question on point.

Pros: Great opportunity to master multi tasking
Cons: Pressure and stress is a norn

Good startup position with lots of responsibility

Great working environment, a lot to learn about the industry. Needs more opportunity for growth, better compensation, needs more team building exercises/activities, more integration with the head office, needs more formal payslip/labour law structures, more benefits & security for employees. Needs to provide employees with more incentives, encouragement & motivation.

Pros: Great working environment
Cons: No opportunity for growth, no stability or formal employment contract/payslip structure

Awesome culture

Most challenging, cold calling clients, getting them to gain your trust and part with personal information in order to do a quote and sell them a financial product

Pros: Growing company
Cons: Promotion opportunities very limited
