South African Airways Reviews

 

My daily life at work

Been a cabin crew member is more like a lifestyle and not work. I had more fun than anywhere else while I was at work. It was a easy job, easy to make friends and meet people from different walks of life. I worked for a big airline, so I worked with different colleagues on a daily basis. When traveling overseas for days, we were family and took care of each other. I learned to love my job, to appreciate it and to always be grateful. With that said I faced many challenges, I have had to stay calm while there were sever turbulence in the eyes of the passengers, I have had to become a mother to children traveling along, a nurse to a wounded passenger, a counselor to those that had problems... The list of challenges is long. Overall I loved my job.

Pros: Love my work, hard worker, punctual, fast, easy to learn
Cons: Gives many chances when wronged

MySAA

awesome company to work for, yet lacks a clear mandate from the shareholder due to all the politicks taking place. strong brtand yet starting to falter as leadership is weak in theface of the uncertainty around the position of the company.

Pros: Strong brand, great potential, broad resource and skill base,
Cons: Skill and resource base not optimally used, potential not realised due to decisions taken by shareholders

Excellent all round knowledge

When I was employed, a typical workday started off by checking all major IT Equipment if working, any alerts or errors. Visit the operations department staff to check if any issues been experienced with the system or equipment from the time I have been off shift until the time I am again on shift. Solve these issues as they arise. Go through e-mail to check on queries or follow up on any logged issues. Discuss with the Business Analysts needs for enhancements. This I find most challenging to motivate for a case for an enhancement in the software used. As money is involved here, each enhancement or fix needs to be properly motivated. I enjoy testing software to see whether they function according to the business rules. I have good relations with all my peers at SAA Cargo as well as all the contractors doing work for SAA Cargo. Although people may have negative opinions about SAA our culture was great. I have learnt how a complex organisation comes together for achieving a single purpose.

Pros: A great culture to work in
Cons: shift work
