Good given an opportunity to learn when from school

to work in this company as it the world wide company it is good for me and is got benefit for us. during the day is very busy sometimes you dont see when is the nock off time. we work as team and we assist each other when someone is attending other issues his not in his desk, answering a busy telephone calls, you need to be accuracy when capturing and be fast. as we work with old people somtimes ,they advise or train us into differ things about work and life. we also teach them for new technology. challanges you must always accuracy since we deal with container numbers and charge according to date so the date must be precisly. otherwise client would quiry and to avoid credit.

Pros: since we assist into differ sections chances of promotion is there
Cons: sometimes you are asked for overtime in a shortperiod to assist

I believe that by learning new things in life it helps one to be a better person.

I would say that during my stay at the company the most challenging aspect which is also key to the company is to deliver goods promptly as this at times is affected by congestion at port terminals where we normally pick up cargo. Although clients are a priority at all times it is key to try and deliver on time and also to respect the rule of the road to safe guard all road users and the cargo being ferried. My disappointment in the current company is that there is no room of growth for workers. I am a person who likes challenges in life and I challenge to grow in it. I personally believe in team work and a through and through communication environment as this is also let.

Pros: Opportunities for promotion are limited
Cons: I have no problem working long hours as long as the operation demands

MSC gave me a clear picture and brilliant idea of how the maritime industry is in reality.

Working at MSC is a valuably testing experience. Great work pressure, bearing in mind MSC being the largest container operator in the galaxy. Also it teaches not just quality work ethic but also a sense of integrity and dignity towards own work and that of my colleagues.

Pros: Every morning starts off as a walk in park breeze until peak hours starts, where everyone is just working under pressure trying to mean deadlines. My colleagues are bundles of joy and helpful hands. In one word a " Family ", awesome people to work with. I also learnt that the workplace is no platform to complain but to hold the hot coal in your hand until it chills there.
Cons: There really aren't any cons besides the serious requirements to avoid the slightest mistakes as they can lead the company liable for great costs.

Excellent company to grow in

As any shipping or logistics industry it is very fast paced and high work loads. A typical day would bring in approximately 2000 emails and anywhere up to 100 calls. Constantly dealing with very upset clients and being great at client services is what gets you through the day and extensive knowledge of the work. This goes a long way if you are someone who is eager to learn and not only learn your job function. Working with people and colleagues was always my favorite... as I love problem solving and conflict solving. Many nights working long hours and going in very early in the morning just to go the extra mile for a client who desperately needs your help. Company also believed that you don't only have to do your job but lend a hand in any department that was struggling as different departments had different times where their work load picked up . Was an amazing company to work for and the people were definitely what made it.

Pros: Room for growth if you prove yourself
Cons: Not always noticed, so had to work hard to stand out

Ever since I joined MSC.

Ever since I joined MSC, I have learnt ways of dealing with people from different cultures, as I attende to messenger on a daily bases. However, for as much as it is exciting to be around the MSc family, there are days where people won't be nice to you due to the pressure they under, that have taught me to stay calm, and never get angry easily as what ever the person had said was not what he intended.

Pros: Great opportunity for youth to gain experience
Cons: Long working hours
