Pros

- A great place to get your feet wet and grow in many different directions. -free parking at Brisbane location

Cons

- the company lacks leadership. It’s a girls and boys club for those who know the people in charge. - it’s important to note how companies treated their employees during the 2020 covid-19 pandemic. This company was able to lay-off 20% of its workforce off while simultaneously hiring people to fill those positions—the weeks leading up to their layoffs. Communication completely stopped. Leaving employees abandoned and fearful for their jobs and their families who they support. Based on this alone, I would never recommend anyone to apply for a job here. - there is absolutely no visibility into anything. There’s so much misinformation that you can easily see leadership on television telling the country misinformation. You get most of your company updates via gossip. - this is not a learning environment.

Pros

It’s a job. Read the cons.

Cons

I usually check Glassdoor for reviews to better understand how a company operates and functions from an insiders perspective. Although I didn’t listen to the negative feedback of current and past employees, I decided to see it and experience it myself. I’ve been in this company for quite some time and fully observed the anatomy of the work place. And let me tell you... I should’ve listened to the negative reviews. They are spot on. I don’t want to repeat anything else that has been said here. But let me absolutely 100% confirm that they are begging/paying people to review this company as if it is a “5 star wonderland.” It is not. You can not trust anyone in this company even the people that call themselves “Human Resources” if you have any type of troubling concern, they are not there to protect you (the employee) but protect management and save face. They are completely useless just like these FAKE 5 star reviews.
