    Rockhampton & Capricorn Coast QLD1 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    Met some really great people here. My mental health deteriorated while working in such toxic conditions. Wonder how they manage to maintain license for Residential
    The good thingsSome really great coworkers and the pay is good
    The challengesHigher management right up to the CEO do not care about an employees wellbeing Technology is outdated, very paper based and the processes in place are restrictive to completing tasks, taking longer than they should. Working autonomously is not a thing, very micromanged. Raising issues is not taken positively or seriously as there is a culture of sweeping issues under the rug.

    I felt supported, I had fun and I experienced so much and learnt so many new skills that helped me grow as a person. Highly recommend.
    The good thingsThere is a variety of many good things while working at Anglicare here in Gladstone, you never feel scared or lose confidence working here because there are just so many people that are kind and supportive to you. The experience you gain is very rewarding and you'll be able to take it with you wherever you go. The administration team especially is very kind and always willing to help guide you, even if it's a gentle push that will get you out of your comfort zone and feeling more confident to achieve more.
    The challengesThere were no challenges I faced that left a negative impact, I feel like with any challenges that I faced there was at least someone nearby that I could turn to for guidance so if any challenges, I felt like they helped me grow and learn.

    A backwards organisation acting like a progressive one
    The good thingsPay was higher than similar orgs in the area.
    The challengesThe culture of this organisation is revolting no matter what level you’re at. They talk the talk of being progressive and equal opportunity, but their real values don’t align. Some good managers, but otherwise an entire staff restructure would do some good
