Low energy environment
SEA/AP Administrator (Former Employee), Houston, TX – November 27, 2012
Pros: company groups maintain dont gain fitness awareness for example
Check emails, follow up with buyers regarding different situations and outstanding budget issues.

I learned the true value of what it takes to be a team player.

In my experience immediate management was very helpful in day to day encouragement and updating stats. Very knowledgable and skillful. However, could be more successful if personal feelings – more... and expectations from subordinates were not pressed only for personal benefits. BONUSES. If it were nessessary at all, not in staff meetings.

My co-workers amazingly with all the personalities of 25-30 women I had no quams personally or otherwise. It grew to become a very good work environment.

The most challenging part of the job was adhereing to a mandatory 45hrs per week in the very beginning. Other than that, it was work as it comes with daily challenges.

The most enjoyable part of the job was the outcome of bills being paid early(within net) or on time to the date. – less

Average convenience store
Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Mckinney, TX – November 12, 2012
Just your average gas-station convenience store. A typical day at a job like this involves a lot of stocking merchandise, a lot of cleaning, a lot of reading newspapers, and a lot of cashiering.

A first class international company with first class personnel.
Static & Rotating Equipment Specialist (Current Employee), Port Harcourt, Nigeria – October 30, 2012
Pros: personal innovation
Cons: progression can be slow
Work on 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off schedule. A typical day starts by 7:00am to 6:00pm, but can be called out in emergency at night. I have learnt how to work in a team and how to make rotating and static equipment readily available. I enjoy challenges, and its fun when you accomplish your task. It can be difficult working with people without planning.

1.Product Manager 2.Baseoil Supply manager (Former Employee), Cape Town ,Western Cape – October 29, 2012
Pros: travel opportunities globally, well paid, great people
Cons: long hours and ongoing global restructuring of the business
Worked in a virtual network reporting to team based in Europe.
Communication mainly by telecons ,interactive messaging ,e-mails.
Although virtual ,very vibrant network of people with specific objectives ,goals.
Diverse nature of work where I supported many countries across Africa ,ensured that days were always busy networking and communicating.
Working – more... from a pre-planned calender made meeting objectives easier.Co-workers who were remotely located were always comitted.
The hardest part of the job was working across different time zones ie outside Africa...Days often became very long.
Enjoyable part of virtual networking was that while you were left on your own with specific targets ,incentives were in the offerring when you fully met or exceeded these targets. – less

Records Keeper and Finance Assistant (Former Employee), Cameroon – October 25, 2012
Pros: free coffee and cream, trips to the beach etc
Cons: strict supervision by supervision, minute by minute update required
Process invoices, resolved invoice conflicts, processed checks for vendor payment. Learned ability to work in a fast paced working environment. Gain accounts payable and receivable professional experience. Management is by objective. Well organized, evaluation every quarter. Co-workers are supportive, they are your back up. The hardest part was supervising – more... difficult contractors or trying to resolve conflicts with vendors, who didn't read the contract before they signed. The awesome part was the end of month parties at the company club house and sporting activities. – less

Sales Assistant (Current Employee), Shardlow – October 21, 2012
Pros: good steady work
Cons: working alone on nights
Shell is a great company to work for, management deligate work well and they encourage career progression well. A typical day at work for me is a slow day as I work nights, but getting to know the regular night patrons is the best part of the job, the hardest part of the job is the work load given at night as there is only one member of staff to manage – more... the entire forcourt at night. – less

Sales man (Former Employee), Cairo Egypt – October 18, 2012
Pros: good learning experience and a big challenge
Cons: long hours in hot weather
At 7 am I got into the office where the manager told us what route we were taking on that day. Once that was sorted me and 2 others got into the van going by all small businesses in our area selling shells oil. The hardest part of the job was adapting to a different culture and language in order to sell effectively. However this is what I enjoyed most – more... as it provided me with a big challenge. – less

Brilliant Organisation
Pricing Manager (Former Employee), Bryanston – October 11, 2012
Pros: flexi time
Most of my day I started off with meetings. At least 3 meetings a day. I learned how to be assertive and manage people more effectively. My co-workers appreciated my style of working & appreciated the honesty and integrity in the work I provided. The hardest part of my job was managing people. The most enjoyable part of my job, was being rewarded for – more... the hard work, dedicated hours and sacrafices made to meet a deadline locally and globally. I also pushed my team to perform and as a result they became recognised globally as well & continuously received incentives for their hard work. As a result my biggest achievement was my team being in the top 5 countries globally in comparison to same team in other countries that perform the same tasks. – less
