I am retired
Order entry, customer liaison, dispatch of orders Arranging of transport Arranging of meetings and flights Got on very well with co-workers Entering stock counts on Sage and balancing stock on system with stock at the depots. Most challenging aspect of the job was to arrange transport to customers all over South Africa. It was like arranging a milk train - stopping at every destination along the route. You had to co-ordinate the routes in order to save on transport costs.
Pros: Great CEO and Managers who assisted you in every aspect of your work. Very competitive salaries and no discrimination between men, women and ethnic groups. One big, happy family. It was awesome to work for them
Cons: There were no cons as far as I am concerned.

Fantastic place for job satisfaction and growth
The core values of the company was "High ethical behaviour"and "Safety on and off the job" and "Respect for people"and the "Environment" One was guided daily by these core value in your interaction with people inside and outside the company.We we were taught,for example, to read our e-mails carefully before pressing the send button,especially as we were a multinational company dealing with different culture and nationalities. The challenges of the job is that one was dealing constantly with outside parties,such as creditors, clearing agents,and colleagues in the USA and Europe.One had to win their trust and co-operation to get the job done
Pros: International exposure to rate oneself against your overseas colleagues
Cons: Change of staff, due to promotion or resignation
