    Pokolbin NSW 23205 to 6 years in the role, current employee
    Only good if you’re friends with management
    The good thingsOpportunities for promotions if you are friends with the right people
    The challengesIf you aren’t friends with management, your life will be hell. Immature and inexperienced management. Upper management do not care about you. Super high staff turnover.

    Pokolbin NSW 2320Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
    Messy management and lack of maturity in management
    The good thingsThe coworkers and fellow staff are super friendly and helpful.
    The challengesVery unhygienic and not many people clean up after themselves. Management is all an inner circle of people and is not a place for career development. Most of the managers are also rather immature for their rolls and have a lack of leadership.
