      Great people, Bad upper management, Bullies are promoted to senior levels

      Marketing & digital department
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      People (non-managers) are great to work with. Great pay and bonus.

      Cons

      Bullying is common place. Upper management turns a blind eye on it and in fact, promotes bullies to management levels. Lots of pre-meetings and prep-meetings for meetings. Great place to work if you want to play political games rather than being good at your job or to learn new job skills. Strategic direction is consistently changing due to the business being so tightly led by the government. It's like a political party trying to run a commercial business, makes no sense except to "meet goals" to be re-elected or to avoid bad PR.

      Worst Company I Have Ever Worked For

      Senior network engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      If you would like to get paid good for doing very minimal this place is for you. So yeah Good pay is pro but that is changing as well as they will soon run out of money.

      Cons

      No talent hiring. Manger hiring people they know only. Manager and Lead flying interstate and internationally every second month for doing nothing and wasting tax payers money. Bullied work environment, there are groups in the company so if you are not in the good terms with them , you will be going out soon or have to put up with their bullish behaviour. No career progression No real KPI No real training. No real work life balance, you frown upon if you work from home. Job descriptions advertised are misleading.

      A once great environment now being overrun by bureaucrats and power mongers

      Business outlook

      Pros

      A singular focus on a singular purpose made this a great experience, for a while. In the beginning the startup culture and the focus on building something special and important overshadowed the painfully antiquated senior management.

      Cons

      An increasingly process heavy orangisation with personal agendas and power trips becoming the norm rather than the exception. We're wasting taxpayer's money and hiring fools to do it. Our senior management have no idea what's happening beneath them because it IS beneath them.
