Abelanani Creations Work-Life Balance reviews

Always busy, it was a good environment for growing as an individual and as a company. The duties were all challenging and we were always on our toes. That prepared me to be the hardworking machine I am today. Because of the atmosphere we had back there, I no longer dread pressure. I started as a mere traffic controller, running in between dispatch, receiving and production ensuring clients receive their orders well on time, and later was given an opportunity to grow as the company was progressing. I later moved to Job Scheduling under the warmth tutelage of the directors, was later moved to a new and exciting department that was being introduced at that time, The Digital Printing department. I started with it from the ground and watched it grow rapidly. It turned out to be the most interesting designation I have ever graced in the company. I become quite knowledgeable in the processes surrounding digital printing. And it turned out, also , to be my area of expertise up to this very day.

Pros

Overworked people, not fun place to work at

Junior Planner (Former Employee) - Johannesburg, Gauteng - 29 December 2021

That company will make you work long hours Monday to Monday without paying you. It was too much for me, I left after a month and few weeks, I didn't like it completely, the energy around was bad

Extreme pressure due to lack of management

Printing operator (Former Employee) - Bedfordview, Gauteng - 5 June 2021

Good as a first job, no growth after that and production manager has poor values and skills required to do the job and lead a team. CEO and management are biased in decisions and can make you feel like you have committed a crime.

Pros

None

Cons

Extreme pressure and long hours

Disappointing

Printer operator (Former Employee) - 4th floor - 5 December 2019

Abelanani was a horrible place to work at, there is way too much politics that goes on there, there is no job security and the staff, management and owners only look out for their best interest, we were forced to work extremely long hours and overtime, if we could not work overtime we were given warnings.

A very challenging place but fun at the same time

Quality Cherker/Manager (Former Employee) - Johannesburg, Gauteng - 10 May 2016

-in the morning checking stock,the printers are available and the jobs that are going on that day must be my first priority. -I have learned how to be responsible and be a team leader. As. well as to manage people. -to be a manager you must be a role player manage to joggle your work everyday in simple words have strategy. -be able to work with your people try to be in their shoes but have limits. -when you have to make sure the job is perfect so that the client would be satisfied. -when the job is done and ready to go out with no mistakes. Only hoping that you have satisfied the client.
