It was hard work and fun at the same time.
Fitter (Former Employee) - Boksburg, GP - 10 November 2014
One day as I was about to go to lunch. One operator blocked the vacuum line, I then had to council lunch and attend to his problem because the batch would be wasted . Then I got my tools, applied safety measures and began unblocking the the line.I reassembled the line and opened vacuum. Then I learned that before the operator could open vacuum, he should make sure he has added flour in the batch. The hardest part of my job was overhauling the pumps. The parts were very heavy to carry. Training people that came from trainrite for their practicals was one thing I enjoyed very much.
Pros
We would get a free lunch if we got our batches on target.
Cons
If the demand was high we were asked to work on weekends

Productive and Challenging Work Environment
Budget & Planning Manager (Current Employee) - Boksburg, GP - 15 October 2014
There are new challenges at work every day (which I enjoy) due to the division I work for. I am constantly learning about the East West Africa regions.
We work together extremely well as a team.
The hardest part of my job is managing the challenges that I face on a daily basis but this is also my most enjoyable part.

Team work - Common goals.
Fitter - Technician (Current Employee) - Boksburg, GP - 20 September 2013
Colgate-Palmolive is a nice place to work at.
Colgate has the best Team work from my previous companies I work for.
At Colgate if you dont know something you ask you will get help from someone who knows, so that makes Colgate a nice place to work at.
But for me to further my experience, I need to go in different compies to extend my knowledge.

Good working relationships
Oral Health Coordinator (Current Employee) - Boksburg, GP - 27 August 2013
A productive and well achieved objectves.
Accquring skills that would make me prosper in my career
To have good working relationship with my manager. Management should consist of people who have intention of grooming and growing employees with reasonable trainings
Team work is excellent and one should be provided with an opportunity of growing on his/her own.
Hardest part of the job would be when there is no good working relationships with colleagues and managers
Having been able to achieve more objectives that the ones set out to.
