    The challengesBEWARE! they advertise as fixed-term contract and then give you a casual contract with 1 hour notice. Extremely high turnover and toxic workplace culture.

    A masterclass in how not to run a company
    The good thingsPays reasonably well due to the level of dysfunction you have to endure.
    The challengesAvoid this place at all costs. Joining Senex was the biggest regret of my career. There’s no such thing as front-end engineering or proper planning — everything is reactive and last-minute, dictated by shifting priorities. Management is too busy playing Game of Thrones while the rest of the business scrambles to deliver with no direction or accountability. Staff turnover is a revolving door, but instead of fixing the causes, they hire capable people just to box them in and ignore input. Micromanagement is next-level — it filters down from the top and makes the day-to-day feel suffocating. There’s zero focus on personal growth, team building, or developing a healthy culture. All that matters is the latest “urgent” thing, chased obsessively like a Labrador until it changes again — rinse and repeat. Toolboxes are corporate gas-lighting sessions where leadership pretends everything is fine while the place quietly burns. If you value your health & sanity, give this place a strong miss.

    Worst career decision I have ever made joining this business.
    The good thingsOffice is close to public transport.
    The challengesBrisbane office has a really bad culture. People hardly talk to each other and don't even say hello. Turnover is incredibly high. Management make excuses for really poor employee feedback rather than actually implementing anything to improve the experience. Some senior managers are extremely rude. There is no regard for work life balance and no interest in flexible working, even though this is something that is advertised on the website. This company is just so far behind the times, it is like stepping back 10 years. All this company cares about is reaching their 60PJ production target and will sacrifice employees to achieve it.
