Kontras

- The Australian business is managed by a team that exhibits immature and unprofessional behavior, especially when their demands are not met. - Strategic management requires significant improvement - Culture discourages inquisitiveness, open questioning and transparency - Daily responsibilities are dominated by endless meetings and emails, often hindering productivity with a focus on design by committee. - Organisational instability and lack of clear direction and goals, often influence by spur of the moment strategic decisions internationally. - Engineering department faces a disconnect with executive leadership, which undervalues technical expertise - Highly challenging work environment with significant turnover, including key management team members, following 2023 redundancies - Despite a unified company ethos, internal competition for executive favor undermines collaboration - Prevalence of nepotism, with promotions and opportunities often based on conformity rather than merit - Significant attrition in the engineering team since the start of 2024, with no clear strategy for replacing these positions - Individuals who volunteer for attrition positions often encounter difficulties in receiving market-value compensation, and sometimes even the baseline salaries for the roles they assume.

Pros

I did enjoy working there, most everyone was enjoyable.

Kontras

However, there were also a couple of very difficult people, one of which would throw you under the bus at the drop of a hat to gain self promotion, management listens to him.
