    Toowoomba QLD 43503 to 4 years in the role, former employee
    If you don't mind sitting in a dumpster full of good designs by ex-employees that gets regularly set on fire by sales and management, this is the place for you.
    The good thingsThere were a great group of smart and talented co-workers.
    The challengesLittle to nothing in the way of professional development outside of what's functionally required for a role. Consulting with relevant departments before making big decisions isn't a thing. Nepotism in the workplace is prevalent. Production level and sales drive many management level decisions.
