Pros
- Added a few years of experience to my CV - Met some genuinely good people - Occasional free beer every couple of weeks
Cons
This organisation presents a polished, professional image with all the right corporate jargon and slick marketing - typical of a company focused more on perception than substance. But once inside, the reality becomes hard to ignore. Employees, especially the dedicated and high performing ones, are routinely overworked, underappreciated, and expected to meet unrealistic KPIs. When it comes to pay or support, and despite salaries already being knowingly below market rates, you’re met with the same worn out excuses: “challenging times,” “economic uncertainty,” “setting ourselves up for growth.” Meanwhile, the real priority is keeping charts and metrics looking impressive for stakeholders. A telling example of their approach was the acquisition of a smaller, interstate business a couple of years ago. That team had a fantastic culture and exceptional people. Rather than building on those strengths, the company seemed determined to dismantle it from within, forcing everything to conform to their own flawed way of operating. The result isn’t growth. It’s a slow motion collapse driven by pure greed and poor leadership. The internal environment continues to deteriorate, with good people leaving at an alarming rate (lately one or two resignations per week). Morale is low, trust is gone, and what remains is a culture of control, not collaboration. If you’re considering applying here, take a hard look beyond the rebranding and external messaging. What’s marketed as a forward thinking workplace is, in reality, a cautionary tale. The choice is yours.
