You have said alot,have you worked wit Sahara Group before Or know anybody that has?....and was a victim of this thing you just said.or are you just sayin cos its a private coy-owned by 3 though.>> this thing you said is even worse in oil servicing coys like Schlumberger,Halliburton et al because of the nature of their jobs.I see Sahara Power as a place one can grow careerwise without fear of being laid off the way you portrayed it.I can tell you categorically that there is no job security in Shell presently due to sale of oil blocks ,if we Are to list out the companys with good job security,we might end up having only Federal Govt. Jobs.The Govt. Can come up with any policy at any time-,which could change things....if there's anything you know that might be of help to the new intakes,please say
Thank you!

benik:

Take my word. I am not speaking based on hear say. I know loads of victims and you can also take time out and investigate. In any case I will not say resign but d fact remains don't sleep with 2 eyes shut trust me u never know where it may come from. I am sure when you get in fully you will hear more from employees. Tope Shonubi is a sacking Marshall that's his calling. He doesn't rest unless he sacks somebody.
My advice to people has always been don't ever leave your good paying job for Sahara but if u don't have any it's better than stay at home.

Please dont mind my asking...Were you fired by Sahara, because you seem to know what only a former "insider" can know?

Maybe the so-called victims weren't performing.

Mind you, many people getting this job have not gotten any employment before. so, do not worry about them being afraid of sack.

Also think of it, in case you don't know, Sahara is sponsoring the new employees for a year NAPTIN training. C'Mon it would be thier loss if they decide to sack people indiscriminately after incurring such gargantuan costs.

I don't like to be disrespectful to people, but I might be tempted to say that you should desist from causing hullabaloo in this forum with this sack issue your persistently raise.

What is your primus mobilus on this issue?

What is your motive?

Are u trying to portray Sahara in a bad light?

Or you are just......?

Do you have any alternative jobs for these young people who just got this job?

Do you have any advice for them on how to avoid being sacked?

Sahara power resources is a young branch of the Sahara group, so don't extrapolate the experience you might have indiscriminately to this one.

Shalom!

Why do u think she must have been an insider to know all these? We nairalanders like not to trust posts, asking for evidence. If she tells, u she's an insider, why should u believe this and not believe her initial comments?

No don't get my message wrong pls. I am only advising. Don't be too relaxed. Give yourself a time limit. There are Pple in Sahara who have worked 4years.
Just get my message right.
Mind you Sahara is not bothered about d training you've undergone. If they want you out the next day then you are out. They have the money. Just get my point here. Do your job and don't be too relaxed.

All the best

I believed her initial comments and that was why I said "Thanks for the tip".

benaikodon:

Well I thought that she must have been an insider because the conversation on this thread suddenly went from bank alerts to getting sacked, and it was started by someone (Benik) who had not been contributing to the thread all this while. So I had to ask.
Also, I was kinda curious to know why she was fired if she was an insider, because only that will help us from getting fired...and I think she did justice to it.

benik:

Well unfortunately I wasn't and that was a big mistake cos if I was fired I would have been paid off. Being fired in Sahara is not a stigma but a way of life. You go to work daily working in fear because you never know when it will be your turn. The former head of hr in Sahara power was fired unsuspecting. I remember she was at work over the weekend and worked tirelessly on Monday same and by close of work she was fired for no reason just because Tope wanted to put someone else. There is more you need to know about Sahara not just lack of job security but I will say no more I will allow you find out the rest yourself. All the best

Am sure we don't really have to fret because even the dumbest rookie knows how not to get fired.

that was an apt response from you. I doff my hat.

You know in times like this, many haters arise.

Nevertheless, we must all know that Job Security is rather an elusive term these days. it seems like a mirage. I don't think it extant in top companies.

many fortune companies employ forced ranking distribution scheme to flush out staff that are not performing.

But I believe that a man's skills will make room for him.

Shalom!

Just observin.....watch out for my comment.Coming Soon....

[quote author=benik]Hey people. Nothing to quarell about. If you read my post well I said job security isn't the only ish with the company but overtime if you work with them you will understand.

Well I also thought your skills will always make way for you but when you see people who are at their best at what they do get fired then you wonder.

I was like this before I joined. Pple warned me but I felt oh they were fired because they didn't perform alas I was wrong.

My advice to anybody joining Sahara. If you had a good job prior to joining them then use made a big mistake you may want to retrace your step if possible . If otherwise then it's better than nothing. Luckily my former employers were more than happy to have me back otherwise I probably would still be in Sahara working in fear of the unknown or would have been fired by now[/quot

May I speak with you in private?

I don't want to ruin your excitement pls. So back to the bank alerts jist pls.

By the way, are u an engineer?

Abeg thank you again for d updates. so far ders so little we know abt dis coy we r so happy to join, its nyc to get a new perspective. I also understand d guys, dey only want u to know ders no sense in starting a new job with a negative perspective. it wld be much more helpful if u could balance wot uv told us with a clearer insider guide and encouragement. So we would be better dan our predecessors
