Pros

Good work-life balance, work from home also possible if needed Good people, accommodating. Nice office, close to train station, parking also available One of the best products in its domain.

Cons

-Immature processes. They would try a new process after every 3 months or so. -People in the senior management have not worked elsewhere; they think what they are doing is right. -Very low wages -Almost no chances of growth, established people won't let you perform -Melbourne centre is isolated and functions differently than the US and other branches -Recent layoffs -No opportunities to new employees, you will be asked to follow the ones who have spent decades in this company. -No HR department

Pros

Good remote working options are available

Cons

Direct leadership frequently used 1:1 meetings to discuss personal matters rather than tracking project timelines, yet would later blame subordinates when timelines slipped. It was an incredibly uncomfortable environment where it felt impossible to succeed. Good ideas would be implemented and well-received by others, but direct management would find something negative to focus on, like claiming it took too long Communication from direct management was passive-aggressive and often crossed professional boundaries. The language used in team settings was frequently inappropriate, including the use of highly offensive, derogatory language disguised as jokes. I was uncomfortable most of the time I worked there.
