PBT can be a very difficult environment but good exposure with client work. Various projects across Africa that provide you with great hands on experience.
A typical day begins at 0800h and ends at 16:00. In this job, I've learnt Testing and Automation, Java mainly focusing on Spring Boot and the spring framework. Working on Jira in an agile environment. Spira test for test case management and regression. Using Postman to test API's. using TestCafe to execute automation of scripts.
You gain valuable experience in the company as you are responsible for a couple of functions. The people you work with get along well with each other and have a family vibe in the office.
The office is a friendly environment, everyone is helpful. There are growth opportunities to move to new roles. I have learnt a lot about the BI and Telecoms industry.
Pros
Friendly organisational structure, quartely networking events
Cons
Sometimes required to work on weekends
the workplace is good and above average, you are surrounded by Bi specialists who understand the environment and are willing to share information. Communication is key when you are on the floor, everyone knows who does what.
The management is friendly and they do listen to their staff, fun activities are held to keep employees engaged and busy.
The hardest part of my job, was the beginning when i was introduced into business intelligence , it was a new concept to me and grasping all the available information was tricky as it was related to real life case studies in the telecommunication industry. With hard work and dedication I managed to become one of the successful consultants.

Pros
Free lunch, Flexible Working Hours
Exciting work environment where one has the opportunity to be innovative and find own solutions through internal and external networking.
Much learning in the field of BI and also how to deal with professionals in their respective fields.
Very flat management structure.
Hardest part of the job is the unrealistic expectations from external clients and limited resource availability.
Most enjoyable is the independence to find solutions, dealing with external clients, working in foreign African and Middle East countries.
