Less than 1 year in the role, current employee

The best place I have ever worked!

The good thingsA really pleasant work environment. I have one of the best managers of my career, so easy to engage with. A very supporting team who are all fabulous individuals to work with. A great place to work and genuine commitment to flexible working arrangements which increases productivity in my view.

The challengesLike most jobs, workload can be challenging at times, but its not constant and there is time to breath. Working with the Federal Department of Health is challenging. Dealing with individuals at the Department who are often not up to the job is difficult.

The good thingsIntelligent, hardworking teams. Diverse range of projects. Work life balance days 2/quarter. Open plan office and hot desking. Central location.

The challengesTechnology challenges with hot desking. Restructuring due to funding cuts. Doing more with less. Working until the job done means managers working long hours. PBS and TGA reviews take a long time.
