Pros
Broad remit and autonomy available due to lack of leadership, systems or processes. everyone just 'wings it'.
Kontras
Exec leadership team, with few exceptions, operate on a regime of fear, bullying and blame. Very little leadership, unethical treatment of staff goes unnoticed and is seemingly encouraged by certain leaders (Finance Director and senior members in Supply Chain in particular). The leadership team is in over their heads, the reaction to any failures to turn the business around is to blame their own staff. The offices are poorly located in an industrial area of North Geelong and are poorly maintained, ugly and uncomfortable (if you're being interviewed don't be fooled by the glossy reception area, this is the only nice part of the whole office), the teams all turn on each other and the default position for all staff is suspicion, finger pointing and fear. In twenty years of my career around the world this is by and far the most toxic, awful place I have ever worked. Everyone here on Working Visas feel trapped and are waiting for the time they can get out, everyone else lasts about 3-12 months, staff turnover is reported at around 35% but the numbers are clearly being fudged as turnover in TSSO is quite clearly closer to 50%. Do not be seduced by the lies or the money, this place is hell on earth.
