Pros

Good pay, benefits. Workers are good blokes. Its a job, pays bills. There is light at the end of the tunnel, just where it ends is unknown.

Cons

Hours are long, rosters are all over the place and only changed when the company wanted to save money. Absolute ZERO opportunity to move up. Training Zero again due to budget cuts. Given new contract, no option, everyone lost money, not one leader gave up their coin or Prado. Pretty much a communist dictatorship where if you speak up you get the boot. Leaders are backwards mindset of 1960, no ability to see 2016 business standards, or ethics. Safety has gone to the dogs now money is the priority, we earnt the big dollars in the boom but now times are tougher the company takes from the workers instead of giving. Hugely nepotistic, leaders grill workers should they put a foot wrong but exist in a world of their own making the rules up as they go to suit them. Pressure put on workers to resign and many sacked all to save on redundancies.

Pros

Good benefits including $5 lunch, flex 9/80 schedule, gym subsidy, etc.

Cons

Company is very top down approach. You are told to execute the plans without having the opportunity to ask why. The managers could be mean in certain departments. Young people here are trying everything to make their managers happy in order to get promoted without really wanting to learn things. The management sometimes bully the people reporting to them and ask the direct reports to do ridiculous things. In some departments the analyst work like their manager's secretary-bring the managers coffee, cake, and presentation papers; book their manager's flight and organize manager's birthday party. If you are willing to do that you will get promoted within quickly. It does not matter what you do, it is how you 'make the management happy' that matters. Really bad culture here.
