Pros

There were lots of good time's working at RACV such as staff engagement and range of projects.

Cons

Unfortunately there is an underlying bullying culture there. As a great supporter and funder of mental health agencies, RACV staff are enabled to make defamatory statements and spread rumours without mgt mediation when team dynamics go south. Departments then quietly push out the 'outcasts' by isolating them and eventually a pay out. Long term middle mgt allow lower level 'favoured' staff to dictate team structures . Even at an executive level there is an ignorance of this culture as smiling assassins do their best work.

Pros

RACV pays well, offers generous employee discounts across its insurance and leisure products, and is financially stable with a genuine respect for work-life balance. As with most organisations, your experience will ultimately hinge on your division leader and direct manager. The majority of senior leaders are smart, respectful, and genuinely care about their teams — though a minority will put their own ambitions ahead of the people they're supposed to serve.

Cons

Like many large organisations, RACV's scale comes with real constraints. High overheads, accumulated tech debt, and rooms full of 50+ stakeholders can make innovation feel like swimming upstream. Decision-making is slow, and with senior leaders holding strong opinions, employees can find it easier to follow orders than fight for new ideas. Resources naturally flow toward the top organisational priorities — which means some parts of the business are left to make do with less.
