Pros

- Good people. - Forced to learn how to self manage. - Diverse skill set development. - Flexible working environment. - Customer relationship is well managed and clients are well looked after.

Cons

- Stagnant culture. - Some management should not be in charge of people. - A real "figure it out for yourself" mentality when you ask for help and you'll often get grilled when you use an 'unexpected' method. - Required to be a 'Jack of all trades' when the training and support internally often doesn't back it up.

Pros

They're available 24/7 to mentor you and give you advice, not kidding. They won't hand you everything on a platter, and if they think you are capable they'll give you the freedom and the responsibilities to allow anyone so inclined to grow and learn; backed up by a support network that spans practically the entire company, including the Managing Director. They will always make time for you, no exceptions. I learned more in the first 6 months here than in the 4 years prior working in IT, and it never stopped; I don't even recognise who I was when I started, and I'm so grateful for the opportunities that wouldn't have existed without that. You won't find an ounce of corporate jargon here; these people are hyper smart and will see through anyone's attempt at bullsh!tting - which means anyone who tries to steal the credit for any of your work will quickly find themselves without a leg to stand on, and possibly without a job. The honour and integrity of this bunch is second to none, they will not tolerate deceit or apathy; so you can be sure that the people you're working with have your back. They're also oddly good with dishing out praise when they like what you're doing; I was so confused the first few times it happened, completely new experience for me, but it was nice.

Cons

Being in Frenchs Forest meant a 2+ hour commute for me, which eventually was too much; great if you're already up there.

Pros

Some cool people work here and some of the clients are really nice.

Cons

I'm going to be incredibly honest and tell it how it is. I can't use my former title due to fear of retribution but something must be said. I've read the reviews posted on here that are all positive and glowing and I know these are written by management. This place is a revolving door of staff. They are loosing 50% of the staff a year on average, due to poor management. If you speak with anyone who has been there more than 6 months you'll understand that the entire workforce is unhappy. The moral of the staff is horrible. Many current employees are wanting to get out but are suffering from such low self esteem, due to bullying from management, they don't have the will to. It's incredibly hard to watch. The senior management are all about lining the pockets of their own family and will treat you poorly to ensure their own succeed. You are an expendable resource to these people. I was worked to the bone and paid $40K below industry average. When I managed to get up the courage to leave I was diagnosed with PTSD, which required counselling.
