Pros
All the pros can be found in Con's section.
Cons
1.) No official company's laptop was given to perform work-based functions - You can only use your personal laptops for official work stuff. This is a backup organization that also provides security for their customers. How is it secure to use personal laptops to access customer's backups and sensitive data? What an absolute breach of Customer confidentiality and security and I feel so sorry for all their respective customers! 2.) Yelling and swearing at colleagues are totally acceptable. - It's ironically ridiculous where I've seen a company where up to the Senior Leadership level, they would swear in official meetings and throw huge tantrums and openly embarrass their colleagues at Townhall meetings. Even, most of the Senior management thinks they are not dispensable and directly shoots ill-tempered remarks at their fellow workers. CV is not a family entitlement, it’s a workplace and could have been treated like one. 3.) Management has an extremely political "Big Boys Club" - If you don't belong to this club, please never speak up, or because if you do, then you will be put on a performance review regardless of how super-technical and hardworking you are. 4.) No appraisals for excellent engineers - The workplace politics is super-strong to the point that the best engineers are often neglected of credibility simply because they are not part of the BIG BOYS CLUB. Regular engineers are regarded as the best for doing nothing extra-ordinary but simply because they are active members of the Big Boys Club! 5.) Very bad workplace culture - You work like a DONKEY and yet Senior Management team makes you feel you are totally replaceable by threatening you could lose your job. So many engineers have literally had to cry bitterly based on this fact or just resign. Absolutely ridiculous! 6.) Non-attractive compensation package - Not even the minimum 2% salary increment was received in the Year 2019, but apparently, some other members of the Big Boys Club received Salary increments plus bonuses, while management blatantly lied no one received salary increments and bonuses! 7.) Non-flexible working environment - No one is allowed to work from home only if you are a member of the Big Boys Club. However, when Covid hit, Management's hands got twisted and everyone had to work from home on their personal laptop and there was no provision of laptops from the company. The company lacks the benefits of a Fortune 500 company. 8.) Highly unhealthy work environment as you "Work like a donkey" - Senior Management wants the region team to be the best out of all the regions at the detrimental cost of their engineer's health which means the bar is set unrealistic super-high and there has been beast performance from the engineers which includes spending a ridiculous amount of extra-hours (unpaid) working each day. Obviously, the only way to beat other regions and make Management look good. However, with zero acknowledgment and compensation to the engineers from the same Management team. Sounds more like modern-day slavery! 9.) Lack of Transparency - Offshoring engineer's jobs to India and Management is not open to workers about this. This absolutely killed the workplace ambiance. Zero trusts in management. 10.) Zero growth opportunities - The only way to get more opportunities is to resign and get better opportunities elsewhere. 11.) Micro-management at its best- this organization is where you get penalized to take a few minutes to break in order to go buy a cup of coffee to increase your work concentration and productivity. Zero Australian workplace culture. 12.) Diversity ratio is nothing to write home about.
