Great Life trainer

Working in this business has taught me a lot about life in general. It taught me how you need to be able to adapt to new situations, pick up knowledge quickly while working in new environments and always staying learning. I moved from sales to corporate after my first 4 years with the business. My 4 years in sales were spent learning a lot about sales and leading people in the direction you want. The time I have spent is CA has been about curtailing all that knowledge to my new job and selling the business, not just our products. Mostly I enjoy the interactions with the different people, even though some are harder than most. A down side would have to be the manner upper management has handled our recent merger. Not enough clarity and linking new direction to real life for me. But mostly the lack of clarity is my issue. I have always found people follow easier when the way is mapped out in its entirety, rather than small chunks. This is not a universal truth, but it worked for me in most cases

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: uncertainty about business direction

Challenging experience but quite great to learn a lot from people with different cultures,beliefs

Challenging experience but quite great to learn a lot from people with different cultures,beliefs. There's a lot of pressure but one has to be alert and assertive in order to overcome that pressure. Every now and then, there are changes made from the top and it cascades down to everyone.

Pros: Great opportunity and rewarding after hardworking
Cons: Shift work. Certain shift patterns

The day to day

Target setting monthly and weekly. Manage customer queries and account. Manage Brand Campaigns by implemeting them on a timely bases. I have learnt to definitly under promise and over deliver on a consistent bases. Most challenging aspec of the job would be managing other aspects of the business (deliveries, stock control, and Credit) that is out of your control but keeping the customer satisfied at the same time. As we are the face of the business its important to manage the clients expectations.

Pros: Always Busy.
Cons: Long working hours

Big company that under pays its employees

It used to be interesting until SAB was bought by AB-Inbev, on a typical day I run two processes at once, running two different brands which is not really challenging but really has a lot of work involved. You have to analyse the quality of the beer of two brands at calculated intervals while at the same time monitoring the processes to make sure they both don't fail. I have a good relationship with my co-worker within the work place and outside of work. I have learnt a lot honestly, I am a very good team player whose always keen to help people, I have also learnt good communication skills and how to build relationship with other people. The most challenging aspect of the job uhm the is nothing really just a lot of work expected from people depending on which area you find yourself in.

Pros: growth opportunities
Cons: under pays employees
