Was amazing, but slowly declining

Pros

Great family owned company with great people. Clients and work done by the company are still great as the base of people know how to work around the MD.

Cons

Noel who took it over from his father Chris has ruined a lot of the business. The sillyness extends to a $5 cable having to be signed off by him.

Great people, terrible management

Pros

Generally, a really good bunch of people. Parking available on site or nearby. Great location in Paul Matthews Drive, Rosedale. Flexible work environment. Has been a fun place to work (but is changing). Has an excellent recruitment business. Some very smart people work here. A good social club has recently been established. Can be a fun place to work most of the time.

Cons

We used to have good managers, but now... not so much. Culture is very flat. Parts of the company stuck in the 90's (including the office decor). Lexel seldom celebrate staff achievements. Pathetic internal system called "TrackIt" - ruining the business. Very poor invoicing and billing of customers (defies belief). Dated offices and no care or desire to improve staff comfort/ergonomics, etc... the bare minimum is all you will get. Very little follow-up on improvement promises to staff. No communication to staff when colleagues leave (we generally find out by surprise when a customer tells us). CEO is not the best communicator and does not possess very good people skills. This has caused people to try and circumvent him and hide what and how they are doing business. The company often operates to cater to the egos of a couple of people.

Pros

Definitely the best manager I have ever worked for Great environment to work in with lots of laughs and banter Supportive team who actually care about each other There is a genuine desire to do things better and be better The company has a purpose for what they are doing and the products and services offered are needed Supportive group of senior leaders Not a corporate business meaning when things need to be done, they can get done The work is varied and interesting Lots of delicious sausage rolls for Monday morning tea

Cons

Heavily reliant on the sales team to sell which can sometimes cause a bit of conflict particularly if nonperformers aren't dealt with.
