Interacting with different people from race down to character
Edcon is really a good company. It cares about its own employees and the pay is not bad I cannot really complain plus we working flexible hours. I work 108 hours a month that makes 14 days for R2888. I have learned a lot from them. The challenges I face is when I have serve my customers and work on the promotion. I find it so hard to deal with but I get through that. I have learned to multitask. I give my customers customers a good service they walk out of the store happy and satisfied. I interact with different people with different moods and I manage all that and I am so happy.
Pros: It all depends on what you do as an employer. You can get promoted in a year. I have learned to work under pressure and I enjoy what I'm doing. my wardrobe at home looks stunning. I can fold my clothes nicely now. The challenges I have is when there is a promotion coming. me having to serve the customer
Cons: The hours are good. I can't complain.

Good company
We had a room for growth within the company. Team work and multitasking on a daily basis. Team work played a big role to achieve daily task. The staff will carry out the daily task as a team. The challenging aspect was festive holidays , working in Menlyn mall, the closing hours were abnormal during festive sesson. I learned that to work as a team is very vital in retail. Where the store achieve daily target it was refreshing.
Pros: Growing opportunity
Cons: When working in the mall, you will have strange hours to work
