Strange culture

Programme Manager (Current Employee) - South Africa - 3 November 2022

The culture is quite strange. There is an assumption that the Aurum way of doing things is the only way and if you are a new employee you don't know what you are doing.There is a very hierarchical culture where if you are not in a high enough management level then you should not be speaking to the Executives.

Great Company

Data Capturer (Current Employee) - Katlehong, Gauteng - 11 September 2019

Great company to work for... Good management and great people. Aurum takes care of its own people. Working hours are normal. Cannot complain much about anything.

very productive and fun work place

Research Assistant (Former Employee) - Rustenburg, North West - 25 October 2018

daily targets were and deadlines were the order of the day. the job itself was a challenge and gave so much exposure. The job included data collection and data capturing, document management and documents handling, travelling was also part of my job description.

Exciting Non-profit to work in

HR Executive (Current Employee) - Parktown, Gauteng - 22 October 2017

Lots must still be developed in the company as they are moving into a Global role. Learned how important a funding model is to your service delivery and careers for employees. Management must still develop the workplace into a production orientation environment. Difficult to work with donations as you have to satisfy so many people.

Pros

Challenging work

Cons

Understanding of donor rules

Amazing culture & fun working environment

Area Office Manager - Healthcare (Current Employee) - Malmesbury, WC - 21 March 2014

Although the pace is a bit slower and steady, my job is busy and hectic at times. I've learnt extensively about the field of HIV/AIDS and how a NGO functions with a PEPFAR grant. Management is exceptionally qualified and knowledgeable. My co-workers are amazing to work with and exceptionally accommodating. Job promotion and movement is only possible in Johannesburg and not Cape Town due to the project structures. The hardest part of my job is the extensive travelling and the petrol endured. The American grant has to be justified annually for funding for the next year of the project (this is a huge concern).
