Pros

Very competitive market salary potential; one of the highest in the market. Friendly colleagues. Free coffee. Modern office building.

Cons

Very outdated processes and systems. Incomplete procedures. Legacy staff gatekeeping information. Confusing and unnecessary tasks. Large workloads. Unnecessarily complex work when it doesn’t need to be. Management caught up in bureaucracy. Poor work life balance expected to be contactable outside work hours meaning you are unable to switch off. Disconnect between regional staff and head office.

Pros

You can have a lot of autonomy and get exposed to varied fields of work. The CEO is highly engaged and respected across the business. There are opportunities to work across disciplines with rewarding projects in regions, there are many proud country people working for the business who are awesome to work with.

Cons

Managers are ineffective with pay structures that have no reward system for hard honest workers. You can work hard or not work you get the same treatment. Promotions are based on years working for the company not effective output of an employees.
