Pros
Organisation has a meaningful mission and purpose within the HR industry. Opportunity to gain exposure to industry events, stakeholder engagement and HR-related initiatives. Potential learning opportunities due to broad responsibilities and lean teams.
Cons
Significant gap between the organisation’s external branding and internal HR practices. High staff turnover, with employees leaving due to dissatisfaction and unresolved workplace concerns. Limited support and communication for employees during resignation periods, with concerns over workload redistribution and exit management processes. Resource and funding constraints have resulted in heavy reliance on manual processes despite external promotion of HR technology and AI adoption. Weak planning and management practices have affected operational efficiency and employee morale. Financial constraints appear to impact investments, systems and workforce support. Lack of alignment between leadership messaging, internal practices and employee experience. Employees may feel undervalued and unsupported, contributing to low morale.
