Culture of bullying, harassment and senior management not taking action

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Standards Au produce great work. However the question is, at what expense?

Cons

Hierarchical structure, poor processes in place when there is complaints about bullying and harassment complaints, managers taking sides of senior staff even though they have used their position to take advantage of junior staff, no transparent objective review of complaints. There is a reason why the average duration of employment for newer staff is less than 1 year -2 years.

Unprofessional and unorganised environment

Project manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The employees are great, lots of event and opportunities to come together with the team.

Cons

Very little opportunities for career progression - unless you are liked by management. Very archaic thinking. A lot of politics (despite being a company that prides itself on transparency). Management refuses to change or learn in any way. If you read through all the 5-star reviews on this page you can clearly see they are written by managers/HR.
