Pros

The team in Sydney are awesome and all very helpful Health insurances + lunches and frequent team/office outings are a plus as well Rapid growth means lots of opportunities for fast progression. Company is still a blank canvas in some ways so there’s opportunities for those who want to step up and make their mark. The product is all the way there in some way but for the most part is cutting edge

Cons

Lots of rapid growth means lots of change which isn’t always good. If you’re looking for a role where you’ll just do the bear minimum and Coast through each day then you’ll hate this company as the support role Itself can be gruelling . Starting salary was competitive 12 months ago but now that travel is back it’s not quite kept up with competitors

Pros

Competitive compensation and strong benefits package. The coworkers and frontline teams are one of the company’s greatest strengths many are incredibly hardworking, supportive, and committed to helping both customers and teammates succeed.

Cons

Significant operational gaps continue to impact efficiency and employee experience. Reporting systems and workforce planning frequently feel disconnected from the realities of day-to-day operations. Employees and leaders are often expected to be accountable for metrics without reliable reporting or clear guidance on how those metrics are measured. Workload distribution can feel inconsistent, creating an environment where some teams and managers become overextended while others are underutilized. This contributes to burnout, frustration, and a lack of confidence in operational decision-making.
