Growing environment
I joined Hollard without experience as my first employer placed me there to gain practical experience and offer Hollard with the services. I started working on SharePoint where i learned HTML and CSS, Application Support which deals with customer comunication, SLA and system issues and configuration. Hollard took me in after my contract ended and that's where i started learning SQL (T-SQL) where i was writing queries and stored provedures for system integration and SSRS (certified in SQL 70-761). I also learned how to create K2 Application (Certified in K2 Five), I am now enhancing a C# developed system and working on Restful API. I have taught myself AngularJS as it is used mostly in the market. I enjoy working on C# as it is challenging and provides a lot of growth and nice bugs to be fixed.
Pros: It's a great company to start at and you get to learn a lot of programming languages.
Cons: Salary is bad

Career Advancement
I have been working for Hollard partner as Branch consultant for a period of a year and early this year I moved to one of the branches in Klerksdorp to lead the branch on temporary basis until the branch leader came back. It was a great opportunity as it helped me grow as an individual and unleashed my potential. I am now ready to move to another company to advance my career and build a sustainable career. I was recognized as a branch leader of the month and was given full support by management to be a better person and do well at the branch. I had a great team behind me and we treated each other with utmost dignity and respect. Getting new sales was the most challenging part of our daily job but admin and claims we excelled as a team. The most important part was customer service
Pros: Opportunity to learn and grow
Cons: Working over the weekend

Excellent
It is such a good experience working in the company because i meet new people everyday and interact with them, some are difficult clients so i like it as it makes me to grow and know how to handle them. I enjoy working with my team and it has to start with me to create a healthy working environment, we treat each other with dignity and respect and we always learn from each other. What i have learn is that everyone is important and must be treated as such. The most challenging aspects it's on the claim stage when customer want to claim within waiting period and say she was never told about the waiting period
Pros: There is great opportunity for growth
Cons: Long retail working hours
