DroneShield Reviews

The company is heavily affected by internal politics, with decision-making often driven from the top down and little meaningful input from those doing the work. While leadership frequently talks about improving processes and empowering employees to be the “voice of change,” in practice there is strong resistance to modernising outdated systems and ways of working. Many processes and technologies feel years behind industry standards, and genuine suggestions for improvement rarely translate into action. There is limited transparency from management, leaving employees uninformed about important decisions and changes that directly affect their work. Opportunities for learning, mentorship, and professional development are minimal, while much of the focus appears to be on promoting the company’s image rather than addressing operational shortcomings. The culture can also feel distrustful at times, with gossip, back-channel conversations, and political behaviour creating an environment where employees are often left feeling unsupported and vulnerable

Management needs training, no people skills or time management skills. No accountability in management after repeated mistakes People blaming when the solution is rooted in unrealistic deadlines. Stingy with the workplace incentives e.g overtime food allowance.
