    Mount Arthur NSW 28201 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    A Tick the Box outfit & nothing more
    The good thingsThe Life style roster was good.
    The challengesA don't rock our boat management who don't communicate, care about or back up their cleaners. Issues regularly not dealt with or discussed, H&S was a joke & if you expect them to act like a professional outfit you will be sorely disappointed.

    Melchor Head Office
    Apr 2025
    Osborne Park WA 60171 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    Some people on site in management roles or senior who shouldn't be, while other junior level staff should be taking over there place. Not much transparency or open communication, things need to be done a certain way to present to people although not the truth. No actual benefits outside of a base salary if head office. People on site with lower level qualifications then some in head office but on huge salaries and bonuses.
    The good thingsSome of the guys at Melchor in Head office were great!
    The challengesPurple circle within mgmt/melchor/monos + HR teams for example.

    Hands down the worst company I have ever worked for after a decade in this industry
    The good thingsAbsolutely nothing whatsoever

    Known for using the carrot on a stick. Tell you what you want to hear and use you till your burnt out
    The good thingsSome of the people were good to work with
    The challengesNon compliance in a lot of areas . Purple circle in place. Seagull management . Doing the work of 3 people only to be told you need to do more while others get away with doing very little. The only reward for hard work , is getting more work piled on you.

    Never-never land for little boys who never grew up.
    The good thingsNo need to fly or use company tools and you can cook your own food.
    The challengesWhile everyone else is flying, getting camp and food and using company tools... you'll be driving 600km each week, trashing your own tools in the salt and living with social outcasts with zero social etiquette...all for a low low income. Get your foot in the door, but get out of there asap!

    not too worse but won't be a place to stay in long run, for the work load, maybe go somewhere else that have a better pay
    The good thingsCo-worker are nice, have 1 day work from home option, yearly pay review
    The challengesPay at the bottom line of scale for the amount of work you need to do, no pay for overtime work, at the beginning everything are nice and sweet, slowly after few months micro-managing kicked in, no emotional support from upper level when things are hard or when you gets mistreated from worker from another department
