Wonderful learning experience

Working at Markham taught me a lot about clothing or fashion retail. I learnt how to deal professionally with customers demands and high expectations. It is always best to meet and exceed customers expectations at all times.

Pros: meeting and helping customers everyday
Cons: standing for the whole day

Excellent learning

Since I was working in my company, I was working hand in hand with other employees as a team,helping each other,I have learned many things like with different customers and communicating with them in a good way not in a harsh way, What I like the most is that when I have made mistake My manager will not come to me and start shouting bat me front of customers, instead he will call me to a private place and solve the issue, What was challenging most is when I deal with va difficult customer

Pros: Yes opportunities of promotions
Cons: Yes I was working overtimes

Joy in the workplace

my typical day at work would be coming in doing my admin there after having a cup of coffee having a fun talk with co workers before starting the day by opening the store and making sales whenever there is customers. my relationship with my co workers is very strong we like a family speak and share anything and everything it is fun working with them. iv learnt to work with people and under pressure, everyday isn't the same, iv learnt how to lead the team and work under pressure, iv learnt what its like to handle the everyday pressure of reporting issues instore and managing stock on a daily. what I enjoy most is working with people assisting customers and having them leave the store happy. most challenging aspect is preventing stockloss and making sure store makes daily targets.

Pros: managing a team is what has lead me in line to get a promotion
Cons: working long hours is something i am use to even working everyday with only two days off in a month

- Team manager , Salesman, Visual merchandiser

• Top sales person (BRANDS) in 2017 • From being a normal sales person to someone who does the banking and responsible for receiving as well as counting stock (trustworthy) and also motivate my subordinate. • I learnt how to listen attentive, critical and appreciative that really improved my customer service and how to handle most difficult customers, that resulted where I had customers who appreciated my service in such a way that they even ask for me when they came to the store, but then I always try convincing them to see the fact that it not just me but it’s the company’s service, so that they stay loyal even on my absence.

Pros: I can run a store / manage a store
Cons: I sometimes work 12 hours

Constant promotions

Is a great company to start a career with constant promotions, but the salary varies from different branches, I'd tie in a bigger branch salary might be R4900 and from small branch might be R4300, the only challenge is when one works in a branch situated in a mall as most malls close even around 10pm, the only issue is that small branches don't get the same treatment at bigger branches like product and other systems are not in placed.

Pros: Constant promotions
Cons: Management from bigger stores look down at other small stores
