It made me who I am

Instability among executives makes it an unstable environment but it gave me opportunitis I would never have had before. I was involved in all projects within operations and especially the turn around. It would be great to witness the turnaround and success being able to make a difference is great.

Pros: big company many learning opportunities

Great experience seeing the world

Working at SAA has been a blast. Someone said that if you enjoy what you do, you won't work a day in your life. I've always been in the service industry, while doing matric I got a job at Edgars as a sales assistant that i think no longer exist. The experience gained from Edgars ultimately got me into SAA. In my 17yrs at SAA I've made a lot of friends never a dull moment and also met a lot of celebrities. What I've learnt from my time at SAA is that you work with individuals, all people are different and that assumptions can get you in trouble. Most challenging aspect of my job came when I got married. Being away from home for long periods at a time began to take its toll on my family life and marriage I tried to get on the domestic flight pool but I was only dedicated for woman that had babies. A manager told my that they are not going to allow that anymore ( just domestic flights) for crew as they needed all crew to be flexible.

Pros: Great opportunity to see the world.
Cons: Lots of days away from home

What I enjoy the most is that the environment was user friendly and customers where understanding, the challenges was growth and dealing with difficult passengers sometimes.

Learning

I love Mondays, mostly because the day flies by in a flash. On a given day, during the early hours you will find me speaking to the clients, finding out – proactively – what their priorities are for the week, meeting with team for half hour to communicate the clients’ needs and organizing the team schedules around the client’s priorities.“I have a excellent professional relationship with my co workers, which gel quite nicely with the company environment. People assists one another.We work as a team to solve problems and learn new skills to reach our team objectives.I made some good friends for life, who today can vouch for me on a professional basis.“

Pros: Exiting and challenging
Cons: No growth
