Pros

There are quite a number of talented people and you are allowed a considerable amount of flexibility and autonomy. To be part of a high profile and fast moving company can be exciting.

Cons

Leadership team are somewhat dysfunctional and do not walk the talk. Almost all words have been fluff. A considerable number of talented and senior employees have departed the Melbourne office in quick succession, which speaks volumes.

Thanks so much for your feedback. Can I please encourage you to give some specific feedback on Officevibe to help us understand your perception of what you think isn't working (particularly in the AU Lead Team)? We are committed to improving which is why we have introduced Officevibe to get your real time, anonymous feedback on what is working for you and what isn't. As a side note - this isn't intended to replace face to face feedback too. Our MD would welcome your thoughts over a coffee. In terms of attrition, we do an exit interview with employees leaving the business to understand what has contributed to the decision. The general theme in 2016 is that many people joined when we were a much smaller company in Australia and now we have more than tripled in size it's just a different business. We are no longer a startup at the beginning of the journey and as sad as we are to see talented people leave, we also don't want to retain people at all costs or prevent them from following their dreams in other directions.

Pros

Company is going places and enjoying global success. Lots of opportunity for career growth and the work is great. Love it.

Cons

Management has a hard time focussing on what's important. Wants results in product but could and should invest more there than it does.
