Pros
Exciting times with the upcoming merger. Some genuinely good front-line and back-room staff. Was initially a welcoming, positive place to work...
Cons
...until a few new managers rode in like the four horsemen of the corporate apocalypse. I've never before seen a workplace's morale plummet so quickly and decisively in so little time - a triumph of conceit, deceit, subterfuge, incompetence, and - in one case - actual evil. Difficult to understand how people with so little to offer who lie directly to their staff manage to find their ways into position of power. Changing tasks, roles, names, targets, plans, strategies almost every week and then blaming the staff trying to dance to five different tunes for not performing as expected - but never actually laying down the expectations, apart from amorphous values - management excellence. It's hard to believe they were hired by accident, so can only assume that the end game is to enter the merger with as little baggage as possible in terms of staff and office expenses in Hobart, having forced, hounded, or simply brutalised staff out of a job in little old Hobart - but that's merely a hypothesis. What isn't a hypothesis are the staff being treated like idiots by a few managers. I hope the staff find their voices amongst the gaslighting managers and speak up or move on. They can do better. They will be Care in name soon, and one hopes they care about the funds of their members, because they don't care about the welfare of their employees.
