Profitable and fun when we are preforming well
Branch Manager (Former Employee) - Polokwane, Limpopo - 31 March 2022
I have learned a lot and the most important thing is that they care about their staff. The environment is very user friendly Management do support and advise and inspire for all team members to succeed. It's easy to adjust to the winning culture and making more money, being successful in your personal space and at work when your not preforming it can be hard hey When you win with your team and your branch is meeting target and exceeding it, plus the month when you get your dividends and qualifying for sales competition and earning more money monthly.
