Pros

Free parking. Close to Macq Park shopping. 🛍 Most staff were nice (90%) Easy to slack off if you wanted. Work from home 1 day per week.

Cons

No job growth or opportunity. Low pay (not even market rates). Poor management. Very wasteful of money. Virtually no wage increase. Employees not valued at all. Waste of time being here. HR useless (dont care about you.. only about the company). Location. Job security (they cull 10-100 jobs each year from different departments). Offshore elements of dev to other countries.

Pros

Everyone is genuinely nice and cares about their jobs. Nice offices, and big corporate backing. Can't really say that the experience was negative but for high acheivers/ ambitious people probably not what you're looking for.

Cons

A ton of bueracracy, there are some many layers of approval that even the simplest things take months to get done. They never take any risks and ideas are very top down. Slow career progression and mediocre salary. Only way to progress is to hope someone in the same position retires or leaves.
