Toxic environment and will challenge your mental health . The good thingsThe team I worked with in NSW was great and it did help in keeping the morale going during work.
The challenges* Toxic management culture ( my immediate manager kept demotivating me and kept belittling me ) SLT were aware of her behavior due to previous employees leaving and mentioning her name however no one really cares
* My immediate manager’s way to manage the team was “ to lead by fear” and make comments like you should be grateful to have a job etc .
* The general attitude is that each for themselves and you have “dinosaurs” sitting in senior roles who have no idea on how to get to basic Microsoft office offerings , teams ,data analysis , reports , how to create a folder etc ( basic computer knowledge) and then gets you to do the work and then takes all the credit .
* No room for growth if career progression is what you’re after .
* B******g culture seems to prevail and no one really does anything about it .
* If you get into a CS or account management role , be prepared to be micromanaged and the attitude is the quality of your work is based on quantity of emails you pump out and if your role is required to be a client facing role , Your direct manager would prefer you to be at the office .
* You don’t learn anything and in fact if you’ve come from a place where you’ve learnt a few things previously , that’s about where you’ll be .
* Very transactional or operational and there is no drive to train people more or look at cross training etc to build knowledge.
* When you decide to leave the toxicity , the make it a point to break your spirits to the max .
Do not fall for the “family culture” or go by the fact that there are employees in this company who have been working there for so many years . A lot of them are much older and this is their retirement plan . Toxicity to a whole new level .
