Pros

Salary is commensurate with experience, but it comes at a cost to physical and mental well being.

Cons

The culture has ingrained toxicity. You will be subjected to all manner of harassment and bullying, gaslighting and being ostracised from the ‘inner circle’ or sanctum. They work in tandem to make life difficult for you, especially if you are doing well and pose a threat. Please do your research on Tena AUSTRALIA, previously Asaleo Personal Care and the Fairwork Commission trial which awarded damages to a former supply manager due to toxic behaviour. This company is not worth it. Please reconsider your options.
