Workplace culture

If you are white and or afrikaans. Forget about it.
Sales Representative (Former Employee) - Bloemfontein, Free State - 16 June 2020
There is just too much. Constant tracking, fear of being fired. Openly racist towards white people. Car speed tracking. Strange promotions. Management styles are full of fear. Micro managing is a must.
Pros
Good brands, good insurance
Cons
Terrible working environment
