Pros

Some great people at COSOL

Cons

COSOL is the wild west, hanging onto days past with a boys club, ALOT of mid-week beverages in the CEOs office, a general blame culture, inability to make decisions, and slow/no action on anything that involves benefits or remuneration. Recently the COO has encouraged some staff be treated like second class citizens and excluded from company events. Im general the COO provides a lot of lip service buy very very little action or actual work other than an occasional flurry of emails and finger pointing . Pay rises are 3-5 years overdue. Asking will get you nowhere and will likely have you shown the door!

Pros

Some of the greatest people I have ever worked with. Everyone has a customer first mentality and willing to help one another out in any circumstance.

Cons

Overall direction and leadership out of Global Headquarters in AUS is poor.

Pros

Some of the people who work here are very professional, respectful, knowledgeable, and care about the customer.

Cons

However, COSOL does not put people first. Nor do they put customers first. $$ is their number one priority and they will kick long-time employees or customers to the curb if they feel like they are not growing profit, or if they just don't understand how they grow profit. COSOL would rather lose all of their long-time employees and customers to sell a project they don't even have staff or project managers to fulfill. They race to hire new people who are new to the game and end up with prolonged milestones and delivery. Contracts are sold with ridiculous agreements that are not fulfilled and end up losing the company money in the long run - because they lose the staff with the knowledge and hire newbies who spout fluff but can't deliver.
