I LOVE BEEN AN INDUSTRIAL ENGINEER
working at Transnet is nice the workers are so friendly and understanding I have learnt the communication skills and how to interact with people who have different attitude ..to be an industrial engineer is one of the critical thing and I have learnt how to meet deadlines. the most challenging part is when you are trying to improve something and the workers are resistant to change.
Pros: Less oppotunity for promotion
Cons: normal working hours

My years as Cost Engineer
I start off my work day by reading emails to see if there are any urgent matters I need to attend to. I then proceed to updating Cost Reports for each project,include current payments and implement change management where necessary.I liaise a lot with Procuement,Contract Admin,Planner and Quantity Surveyor so my relationship with them is fairly good. In y 4 years of Cost Engineering I have been exposed to Total Cost management – plan & control resources, costs, profitability and risk throughout lifecycle of project.I enjoy supporting the Project Managers throughout the lifecycle of projects as this is the designation I am working towards, I learn a lot from them. The most challenging aspect is nit getting approvals on time from the client. Approvals of Project change notices or monthly claims. This delays further processes on our end.
Pros: We get perfomance bonuses and training and development is highly supported
Cons: Career progression is limited- No Junior to Senior to Junior Manager to Senior Manager progression. It is currently only Junior to Manager

Learnt so much in terms of logistics
I start work 15minutes before to analyze the work for the day and plan. I communicate with co-workers about the expectation from senior management and customers. I have a good relationship with co-workers and as well they have good relation with me. I have learnt a lot in terms of communication, leadership, reporting and presentation skills to mention a few. My challenging moments is when we have challenges in reaching the expected target and need to report to customers and senior management. The good moments is when we are ahead of target allocated to us by both management and satisfying the customers.
Pros: Oppotunities of promotion are available.
Cons: Longer working hours and working under pressure.

An Excellent learning oppotunity
It was like a normal working environment hard working is needed but with time you get used to it all,we mostly work as a team our relationship was all based on work,because we spend lot of times discussing modules and going to work shop,have learned a lot working in this environment going to workshop doing fault finding on locomotives, maintenance, I enjoyed mostly working in the working getting dirty and stuff it shows you and building you on how electrical fitter should be like,it really a nice experience,the most challenging aspects on my job is working under the locomotives and on top of it it need open eyes and concentration
Pros: it was a great oppotunity working at transnet
Cons: we worked normal working ours
