    Customer Service Role
    Oct 2025
    Adelaide SA 50002 to 3 years in the role, current employee
    Short term at best - get the pay while you look for somewhere that will actually value you.
    The good thingsThe only positive is the pay - that is it.
    The challengesAll they want you to do is SELL, all they want you to do is put up with the "Bull". They train you sort of, but when you hit the floor it is fend for yourself. They say they support but any help "disappears" very quickly. There is a core group of favourites and they get the perks - everyone else is discarded. They talk it up about all the great things they are doing and how much they care but it is all smoke and mirrors.

    Great money while you are there but don't expect job security.
    The good thingsOptus pay you very well and reward their staff handsomely for high performance. It is a fun yet challenging work environment.
    The challengesPoor communication from senior leaders. Waiting for the inevitable tap on the shoulder for redundancy - the company seems to have 1 to 2 massive redundancies per year. Our department was shut down in Adelaide while Melbourne remained - Adelaide outperformed Melbourne in all aspect, but as the senior leadership team was based there we were all made redundant.
