Pros

Enjoyed working with the company since starting but has changed with new local MD. Great people but leaving fast due to above. Good company looking to differentiate and move with the times. Other benefits but not worth having to put up with changing jobs due to new MD. My ratings are based on today and have been tried to be conservative and would have been higher 8 months ago. People like the COO are experienced and invested in the business and have an open door policy, the local MD has the same open door policy but there is no point talking to him as it would fall on deaf ears. Don't let this review impact your decision working for the company as a whole it is a good place to work, just not in Australia right now, just ask the question how long has the MD been there.

Cons

New MD Micromanages. Makes you feel worthless. Takes the my way or the highway thought process. Not a people person and talks behind others backs. Lacks leadership qualities and the external market is going to find it hard to find talent as it is now well known it is not an employer of choice which it once was. Lot of good people leaving weekly and not being replaced.

Dear Colleague - thank you for taking the time to write this feedback. If you are open to it, I would appreciate connecting directly confidentially so I can understand your views in more detail. We are about to publish the results from our annual employee engagement survey and I hope as always this will give us further opportunity to reflect and improve. As you have mentioned our new MD for Australia has not been in the role for long and is also evolving and adpating to the company - I am sure this feedback will be a chance to learn and improve also. As with any company, we have tasked him with harnessing a high performance team and this will of course also mean change as we address under performance - we will support him to achieve this and as we are all aware, he is as accountable for the results as anyone. It's great that you respect our COO and an advantage that he is also based in APAC. I have shared this feedback with him also and will try to ensure that you and the rest of the Australia business grow and perform as much as possible in the coming months an beyond. Best regards and thank you again, John

Pros

• Great work culture. • Non-hierarchical structure in company. • Salary used to credit to respective bank account on-time. • Company meeting organized yearly.

Cons

• Cultural values are fading. • Low salary revision, not meeting industry standards, even you are doing excellent. • Top management is good but the middle management lacks people management skills, and few of them are quite egoist. • Low work life balance.

Beer Fridays, free lunch multiple times per week, plenty of happy hours and sponsored activities, opportunity for travel both nationally and internationally, great management, direct involvement from CEO, growing company, fun culture.

Cons

Takes a lot of hard work and extra hours to learn the industry, doesn't have a great training program, need to be available for customers in a sales role more than just 40 hours a week
