Sanlam

A typical day at work for me wouls start at 09:00AM. I would be checking my emails and calendar for meetings for the day. We would have a stand-up meeting about the days work ahead, usually lasting about 15 mins.
I learned towork in a very organised corporate environment and how to analyse business requirements and to develope the best solution.
Management is good, I am responsible for managing my time and to be productive enough to deliver solutions on-time.We use Agile/Scrum/sprint project management.
Workplace culture is formal, but friendly and relaxed with emphasis on supporting the business's requirements and to learn about the bussiness and industry.
Hardest part of the job for me is to keep everybody happy. The worload is extremely heavy, however I've been praised by my manager for exceptional performance in spite of the hectic demands and requirements from the business.
The most enjoyable part of my job is the sattisfaction I get when deploying a solution that the bueinsess is happy with and being praised for how much the solution I've developed have improved their productivity and business proccesses.
