Pros

*Flexible hours *Strong brand / good market reputation *Exposure to fast-paced environment and high-volume work *Clear business objectives and performance expectations * Access to tools/processes that support structured work delivery

Cons

*This is an extremely critical environment with limited opportunities for growth. *Frequent organisational restructuring, which can create uncertainty around roles and priorities * Feedback was frequently critical & reactive in nature, with limited constructive coaching or developmental support. *Pay levels may not fully reflect workload or performance expectations *Extremely young workforce leads to highly reactive situations *High employee turnover My experience in this role was largely negative due to consistent issues with leadership, stability, and development opportunities. I would not recommend this environment based on my experience.

Pros

Prices at the cafe are subsidised, Office Manager (Nicole) organises great events & Hybrid work structure.

Cons

-Low pay with no benefits (Medical Aid, Pension). -Increases and promotions are based on favouritism not capability. -Hiring is done externally first instead of promoting internally. -POCs do not have much of a place in management, generally hired at the lower levels if hired. -Constant restructuring leading to instability which then leads to a low retention rate. -No room for growth, you’ll be stuck in the same position for years. -Target incentives have changed and are no longer worth it especially if your base is low. -High workload, overtime expected without overtime pay. -Concerns raised about management never get addressed, but you do get targeted for raising the concerns.
