Prós
Fantastic, caring company which really does actively demonstrate its care for its people. Safety focus is always a first consideration, with increasing focus on mental health of its staff. Traditionally there has been significant opportunity to move around within the company, particularly through secondments this has diminished recently due to the workload associated with preparations for the merger with Ergon. Pay rates are pretty comparable to general market, with work conditions being better than most. Newstead office is real positive, with onsite gym and bike/shower facilities.
Contras
Many people struggle with the level of bureaucracy however if you accept this as part of working for a Government Owned Corporation it is understandable.
