Culture eats strategy for breakfast, and lunch and dinner at TasNetworks. Many opportunities for improvement, however there's little willingness to actually follow through unfortunately.The good thingsBelow the leadership level, there's a lot of good people at TasNetworks.
There is a good safety culture that comes down from the top.
Conditions of employment are good. Free parking.
The challengesLeadership levels are riddled with "leaders" who do not behave in alignment with the published "values", have no conviction to improving the place, and are much more interested in upwards optics, siloed empire building, pushing their poorly thought out ideas onto everyone else and climbing the toxic career ladder into the rarefied and disconnected leadership atmosphere.
The place is well behind the time in ways of working, so poorly managed, and what could be easily fixed, processes are allowed to continually impact the business.
In need of fresh blood in the place, but unfortunately when fresh blood arrives they tend not to last and/or fresh ideas are not nourished, again because leaders don't call out poor behaviours. There's a lot of people over 20 years tenure, and it shows. Most taking a knee until retirement. A broom needs to go through the place.
Recently underwent a "Transformation" program to reduce headcount, and because it was done poorly, they continue to pay the price.
