    Great team culture - highly recommend

    Good for work experience but not for a reliable job.
    The good thingsFriendly co-workers. Can get free tap drinks on-duty. Managers are a bit off but they have a lot on their plate usually.
    The challengesEveryone is casual and only managers can do part/full time. I was employed last year around November 2021, we were very busy. Last shift was February. And that was my LAST shift, contacted them for more work, said more will come…. 6 months later nothing. I’m technically still employed at the place but I feel jobless.

    I love working here, many of the staff here have been working for the company for 30+ years, and I can definitely see why!
    The good thingsFamily owned venue, so you always feel very supported. Coming to work feels like a type of home environment. More serious of course, but in terms of comfortability, support, productivity and well being, it feels like a home.
    The challengesGetting a park to come to work on busier days some times can be harder, as our car park gets so filled with customers.

    Never hated a job more
    The good thingsThere is nothing about this job I liked.
    The challengesThe management are terrible, they don’t give two damns about their staff. There are no opportunities for development. I’ve never felt so under appreciated by a workplace in my life.
