What is the hiring process like at Macquarie Group?

Nice office, flexible, smart colleagues

Very political Frequent redundancies and the same role is filled again with a new hire

Flexible working, Global exposure and office Infrastructure are best in industry

Appraisal process and salary increment are not worth appreciating

Healthy work environment Learning and development opportunities Practices social responsibility well Gives good compensation Strong DEI

Lengthy recruitment process Training is not sufficient

Salary was competitive, yearly reviews.

You are just a number on the page for them. You’ll be required to do unpaid overtime or attend unpaid mandatory meetings outside of work hours. They advertise “flexibility” but this does not exist. Minimum 3 office days and most states have non negotiable “anchor days”. New starters are forced to come in 5 days a week for the first 100 days, despite them not being told in the job advertisement or by recruitment. If you don’t adhere to their rules, they’ll threaten you with PIPs. Management are toxic, lazy and two faced. They don’t provide support for their staff, they make more senior staff take escalations instead. They tell you after 18months you’ll be out of the call centre but this rarely happens, there is very limited internal career opportunities. Once you leave, you don’t exist to them, so better be sure to get your service docs and background checks in order before then - and good luck to actually getting your final pay.

Good company culture, compensation and medical package is competitive, fair work life balance, many opportunities for growth and lateral movement.

Many lay-offs have been taking place across all departments. Very short sided from the management to be hiring multiple staff and then letting go of staff in the same department just 6 months later.

-Interaction with different stakeholders across teams -Working with different vendor groups.

-The role and responsibilities differed from what was communicated during the interview process, which led to a gap between expectations and the actual scope of work. -Management support and leadership approach could be improved to foster a more positive and collaborative working environment. -Work allocation at times felt repetitive and heavily concentrated, with limited focus on improving efficiency or optimizing processes. -There appeared to be limited emphasis on long-term team development and building stronger operational capability within the team.

Decent salary and bonuses, good diversity and inclusion behaviours, food in lunchrooms CEO is top quality

Some snarky ambitious staff Lots of expectations on unpaid overtime, 2 hours a day or more at times Only degree qualified are considered advancement worthy Murky promotion framework Recruitment process - slow and HR never get back to you when they say they will

People are very easy and great to work with. Have built great relationships with my teammates.

Sometimes lack the manpower, struggled to fill roles because of the long interview process

Great PTO, benefits, and perks

Low pay for industry standards, no training structure, no onboarding process, terrible work-life balance, and crazy turnover however other departments seem to be better. Not a company-wide issue

Decent salary. Very easy interview. They are in complete disarray so it was easy to get hired at this job. Remote work 3 days a week so it’s easy to look for my next role.

Where to begin. Ineffective managers. Messy leadership. Complete chaos. Overspending on travel and the elite offices will mean a year without bonuses.
