Pros

Very little - there are some good people, pay was ok

Cons

Where do I start... an arrogant, over-controlling CEO and an archaic, Machiavellian-style leadership. Under-resourced and poorly-organised. Senior execs seem to lack knowledge and capability to effectively manage their teams. HR staff on a power-trip with the wrong priorities who aren't there when you need their support. Staff treated like robots with no empathy from senior management...it's all about the KPIs. Long hours expected, poor work-life balance due to high work loads and expectations that calls or emails from execs will be responded to on weekend, public holidays, annual leave etc. Middle management not trusted by senior execs to be able to make decisions they are more than capable of. Unethical behaviour by certain execs. Bullying and intimidation by execs and HR. This has all created a highly toxic work environment with very poor morale. Seriously, DO NOT work at this company, I cannot emphasize enough the negative impact this place had on my mental health.

Pros

Great perks and office location. Most people who work there are passionate and want to do the right thing, as in serving Hostplus members.

Cons

The CEO is awful, a massive bully. He is a total megalomaniac that has the board eating out of his hand. Everyone is scared of him. Once he doesn't like you, you are dead to him. Purports to have certain values like returns to members but feels like a total rort working there.
