Structure disorganisation

Pros

-Great people to work and culture to work in -Can move up if in with the right people -If your are a high performer decent bonuses no matter what the level of pay grade -Great place to work if you are young and have no family or commitments outside of work -More opportunity if located in Perth

Cons

-Retail hours at store level = no work life balance like suggested, not family friendly -Development again happens only if you are in with the right people forget experience, education or anything else that would normally determine a promotion. Think brown nosing! -Targets that are not reduced given prolonged absence in the business no matter what the situation -Managers who slide by with frontline staff doing the majority of the work, who stare at spread sheets for the majority of the day, and have a lack of knowledge of anything that is actually occurring on a day to day basis.

Middle management mess

Pros

In theory the "story" being sold is ok but the execution is horrible. Focus on customer service is a good move. Alignment to CBA makes pricing more competitive as can leverage off the balance sheet.

Cons

Middle management dismissive of employee concerns. Many middle managers are not capable of doing their jobs. Multiple restructures and redundancies mean remaining staff expected to keep doing more with less despite stretched targets. Bonuses are still largely discretionary so you must brown nose to get anything or to get promoted.
