Employees consistently praise their colleagues and rig crews, describing them as great to work with and creating a supportive, positive team environment. Many appreciate the opportunity to work in remote locations and experience the outback and desert wildlife. The up-skilling and learning opportunities are valued, and several employees note that pay rates are good at Wild Desert.
However, there are some potential challenges, such as management communication being inconsistent with frequent changes in direction and a lack of clarity on projects. The roster structure means being away from home and family can be difficult, particularly for those with young children. Working hours can be long, especially on camp move days in hot and demanding conditions, and some employees have noted that head office can be cliquey with occasional communication issues between departments.
