The organisation offers great training and experience for graduates, depending on the job description a typical day for a project manager consist of project planning, financial forecasts, budgeting, meetings with stakeholders, writing progress reports etc. Because one work with diverse teams communication is crucial and building rapport with the team. One has to learn to multitask as there are requests to be attended to on a daily basis as well as administrative work for each project. Main challenges include delivering the project outputs on time as well as getting the authorizations e.g Water Use Licences and Environmental Impact Approvals, which has a big impact on project delivery dates.
Pros: Opportunity to develop project management skills
Cons: Long working hours, pressure to deliver within budget and on time

Please review
Eskom is a nice company to work for , but the problem is staying in one position whereby you qualify for other position(Promotion). There are no challenges as you will be doing one or two things every day for me I need a position whereby I will be able to hard and be able to deliver in time what is expected of me not to work for a day or two all is done for the week. Eskom management wants to keep the employees in the business but they don't care about employee satisfaction or motivating employees.
Pros: What I enjoy, is doing my job in time and my co-workers are really supportive
Cons: You will stay in one position too long and even when you apply nothing is happening, that is why I am apply for other position in other companies
