Pros

I absolutely mean it - there is zero benefit working in this hellhole.

Cons

Was employed with CTS (Silverwater - Australia) I will write my horrific (nightmarish) experience working here, warning future employees rethink their choices before joining in with this company. When I joined in the beginning of this year, there were talks everywhere the employee working before me in this position left within 1 month. My biggest mistake was not to pay attention to this important message. After all, starting as a new employee it is nearly impossible to refuse and start looking for other jobs from the day one. - Workplace misdemeanor, harassment and abuse are very commonplace in this company. There are instances where people from higher management come with gestures as if they are going to beat their employees up. Yelling and screaming are normalized. - A sense of alienation, people refusing to communicate with one another, used to give kind of eerie feeling. - Huge gate keeping of information just to make sure works are hampered enough and higher management is okay with that. - There is no work life balance. Technicians will call 3AM, 4AM, early in the morning, you will literally have zero sleep working in this job. - Although working hours are mentioned 8-5, managers will start calling and chasing from 7 in the morning. - Harassment by your manager, getting bullied is very common in this company culture. - From my fifth day of joining, seeing employees are being made redundant. Technicians are revolting downstairs. There is always some fights going on with employees and managers or technicians or higher management. After 3 months in this job, I had to book appointment with counselor. Finally after reaching my limit, complained to HR about my manager. As expected, nothing happened and 20 days later, I was terminated. But that was a good riddance from my life. Good things started happening only after I was done with this hellhole.

Pros

My manager was awesome. Job was diverse and creativity was welcomed. Salary was pretty good, even if I was technically doing two types of positions. Co-workers were also good, some great, actually. Work life balance was also pretty good. All credit to that goes to my manager and the managers I've had before my last one.

Cons

In the end, my loyalty seemed to not be valued. My hard work showed and I met deadlines before the due date. Only called in sick when actually sick, and hardly took time off. The thing that bothered me the most was the way they laid me off. Group Teams video meeting, but the person giving us the news was not on video. Just a black screen, telling you that was your last day and that after that meeting your access will be cut off. And it was. I almost felt like an email would've been better than that black screen. That is really the only time I felt bad about the way things went. I know corporate life brings in the usual fiscal year layoffs, but it just felt wrong the way it was done, in my opinion.
