Pros

Great people in general, compensation is comparatively good barring the minimal bonus payout

Cons

Company is let down by a leadership team that trudges from one shambolic decision to another and the obvious infighting and selfishness of some the decisions (Asia / Africa regional HQ relocated to Perth ??!!! / Senior management imposing his OCD traits on his staff!!!!) made gravely harm the morale of the workforce. From bad to worse..

Pros

Global leader in segment, safety procedures, and values.

Cons

Recently top management is obsessed with generating profits by cutting headcount, leading to higher workloads, and then they talk about mental wellbeing. In 2026 the strategy is only to generate profits, even if it means we risk our own sales.
