Everything but the actual content of the job is good

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Very understanding for flexible working arrangements - Low pressure - Ok interpersonal culture

Cons

- Technical debt - Fire fighting - No one wants to have hard conversations - No future career direction - Management would rather you use old software tools that are broken that make everything take 50% longer rather then just investing more in ICT to actually uplift these systems - The company does not value new ideas or ICT infrastructure at all - Direction seems to be heading towards a cliff

Disfunctional and Toxic Management

Senior systems engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

6 weeks of annual leave, flexible working arrangements, above market salaries (although this is reducing after implementation of a new remuneration framework).

Cons

Total internal disfunction. Everything in Saab is about the Adelaide office, which won't play nice with any of the other offices. Management work in silos and don't communicate anything to staff. Managers who sideline their own staff and create a toxic work environment are tolerated. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy.

Pros

Interesting high tech products. Challenging customers/applications. Skilled/good commited coworkers

Worst management. (Works for their own interest not for the company) Toxic management (Care for their own careers and doesn’t care or actively destroys employees. ) Everything is top-down.
