Typical subcontracting work environment

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

1. Large size subcontracting/manpower supply company with a long history helps winning a lot of contracts, which releases a lot of jobs in the market. 2. Good pay if you have "relationship" with someone important or you are from "developed countries"

Cons

1. Way too many "family" business ongoing inside the corporation, Lots of father-son and husband-wife inside company and on client's project sites. Conflict of interest seems unimportant. 2. A few employees from Kent just take advantage of working on-site and closer to client. Many shady transaction. Money flows into a few guys' pockets.

Pros

Interesting work with a range of experience provided. It is a very self driven program but the company is happy to assist providing additional experiences if you can make a case for it. The work life balance is excellent.

Cons

The company doesn't have the same depth of experience in Australia as some of the more established companies so they don't have all their systems set up but this is improving.
