Very Confusing Place

Pros

Benefits, private healthcare, fun colleagues

Cons

There's very little direction or vision. It seems like there's a real disconnect between upper and mid-management, not counting the workers at the base of the pyramid. The company is going through so many mergers and acquisitions that it's hard to find a proper path.

Pros

Easy going place to work

Cons

No real direction, organisation of work very haphazard, attitude seems to be to struggle on rather than investing in team and equipment.

Pros

Great people, appreciate skills and expertise, good salary, growing business with good job security

Cons

zero support. No induction or on-boarding so left pretty much to self-train on systems and products. Excessive workload with too few resources to manage and management response is do what you can- but the demands dont stop! Because people don't know the processes ( when they exist) its very difficult to get things done.
