Discovery Reviews

 

Excellent skills acquisition in the last 3 years

I jumped into a completely new industry. I have learnt an extensive amount of new skills and product knowledge in the Insurance and Investment sector. Typical day involves solving client queries and requests, acquiring new business and retaining existing clients through upsell and query resolution.

Pros: Opportunity to learn
Cons: None

Just a number

There is no recognition for work that is being done. Too much focus on negative rather than the positive that is being done. I have learnt a lot in the 11 years. This was my first job but I have hit a wall and it is a bit too big to break down.

Pros: There used to be perks but those have stopped.
Cons: No growth.

Self Starter and applied logic

In every workspace we learn something new each day. The pressures that come with that is how one reacts or responds when levels are high. How one reacts also depends on others. Courtesy, to others, of what the processes and expectations are is key in order to achieve the bottom line of the business

Pros: It's easier to spot real talent
Cons: Limited segregation of duties

Learning curve

My journey as an OD-ETP professional within the financial sector has highlighted the important and intricate part that learning plays within the competency building within any organisation. Taking that into mind, I have dedicated my career to enhance business capabilities through the systematic process of analysing, development, implementing and reporting on structured learning initiatives to various organisations. Hence I have positioned my prospective employer as being a strategic partner to the betterment of business through learning. In order to achieve this, I have expanded myself beyond that of purely facilitation but expanding into the research of technological solutions and third vendors to increase the pool of options to fit each complex organisation.

Pros: Great exposure to the UK market
Cons: UK working times.

Corporate company with alot of benifits but also stress

Working for a corporate company could be very tiring at time and it came with a lot of stress but it had taught me a lot of great aspects that I will be able to carry with me no matter what career I have. Self-discipline was something that was very hard to learn but one I mastered it has opened up so many possibilities, it taught me to look at situations in more than just one aspect. There was time where I had to complete projects on my own and there was also moments where I had to be part of a group to complete the project this came in handy for me when it came to working with my fellow colleague’s and becoming a team to reach success. There is a lot I can say about working for Discovery but overall it was a great learning curve where I became a more direct and driven person just myself alone.

Pros: one can go very far working for discovery
Cons: This is a corporate businesswich mean it comes with alot of stress

Excellent learning curve

It's a nice compsny to work for. Team Leaders make sure that we always work as a team. I enjoy most how everyone is always willing to assist each other even when we work in an environment with a lot of pressure. Ithe biggest challenge is being on the phone the whole day and sometimes you don't get to have a break after a hard call. It can be stressful. Also I've noticed a lot of my colleagues getting sick a lot. Migranes, depression and at one point one of my colleagues face on the left side went completely numb and got swollen.

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Stressful working condition
