Rewarding career, but toxic environment with incompetent managers

Pharmacist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Genuinely satisfying career. The mission of the company speaks volumes, and on a personal level it is so rewarding to know that every day you're making a difference saving and sustaining lives. Remuneration is also very competitive.

Cons

Toxic work environment. Micromanagers question what you do every minute of the day - even outside of work hours and on weekends. Be prepared to sell your soul only to be used, abused and tossed aside. Toongabbie pharmacy is the worst (although Brisbane isn't much better) and unless you're related to management don't bother trying to advance your career in pharmacy! It wasn't always like this. A decade ago it was an amazing place to work, but since then its been a slippery slope and everyone is miserable! Also not a good sign when the CEO steps down 'effective immediately' with no other CEO hired.

Pros

Cant thinking positive about this God forsaken company except for if you wanna sorta get paid and barely do anything this is the place to be. Well I guess if you're a terrible engineer, you'd fit in here!

Cons

Where aspiring engineering careers go to die. 1. Terrible Pay. 2. Terrible Micromanaging Bosses. 3. Lack of Vision from Leadership. 4. Too Many Engineers that Can't Launch a Product Due to Their Incompetencies 5. Engineers Have Too High of an Ego for What Their Skills Are and What They've Managed to Launch
