Pros
Flexibility around working hours. Great office location. Some of the people are great to work with. Welcoming environment (on the surface). Great opportunity for international students studying in Australia.
Cons
Minimal work-life balance. Favouritism. Extreme office politics. Unpaid maternity leave. Bullying is prominent with middle management. High staff turn over. Back stabbing. No rewards or recognition for staff going above and beyond. Staff doing only what is required of them in their role are put in the spot light - this is due to favouritism. Upper management seem to inexperienced in running growing businesses. Decisions that should be simple and quick to male need to be discussed for hours in meetings. The wrong people are in the wrong roles. A little more effort & focus could be put towards the students and their enviroment, they pay big bucks for what? People are directly appointed to roles behind the scenes, however the business acts like they are running a fair selection process. Quick to point out what someone has done wrong but not what they do well. Airconditioning & lifts are an absolute nightmare, most mornings students are lining up all the way back to Elixabeth Street waiting to get in to the building. The average salary is quite low, especially for the industry. Some basic roles are paid on the same par with some middle management. Makes vital roles redundant and act upon that very quickly, it makes it clear there is something more behind the decision, makes you question how trustworthy the company is and the people running it. Minimal career development unless you are one of the 'favourites'.
