    Mascot NSW 20203 to 4 years in the role, former employee
    It's a dynamic job that gives you a sense of doing something useful for the public.
    The good thingsOfficers are constantly underpaid due to payroll mistakes. You need to keep a close eye on your payslip—if you don’t notice or raise the issue, you’ll never be paid fairly. Some team leaders and supervisors treat you worse than dogs, creating a very toxic environment.
    The challengesThe workplace is toxic, with job insecurity and rude management.

    Not worth the money & responsibility.
    The good thingsPay is good. IF you are fortunate to get the hours. Based on favouritism.
    The challengesManagement constantly change the SOPs. Communication between teams is a joke. Toxic environment. Huge turnover. Constantly.

    Best move Adelaide airport could do is find another company.
    The good thingsSome people that work there really help elevate the company.
    The challengesMANAGEMENT they aren't interested in keeping workers their focus is on rotating for government funding. They don't care about keeping you employed

    The only job Ive ever had that I enjoy going to!
    The good thingsEasy job when you know what you are doing. Can ask for as many or little hours as you want. Paid breaks. Paid training. Ability to progress to do other things in the company. Can earn good money if you put in the hours and overtime. Lots of people who you work with are all diverse and it’s fantastic!
    The challengesDifficult passengers. Some members of staff like to think they are superior. Some of the SOPs are outdated and need to be revised for the current time. Not enough females on shift so you can sometimes be on the same job role for hours on end.

    The company is big. It could be even better by considering its employee benefits more, I mean by taking care of its employees more instead of focusing Profit maximisation!!
    The good thingsThe management is reasonable not fussy.
    The challengesSome partiality is there unfortunately!

    Good company to work for, plenty of work available and a good place to get experience.
    The good thingsGreat team of people, friendly and approachable management, plenty of shifts available for a casual, and a lot of flexibility.
    The challengesCan be difficult to get your foot in the door. I know people who cannot even get an interview for unknown reasons. The applicants are reviewed in Sydney, and the management in Canberra seems to get little say.
