Thank you for your feedback. It appears this review may have been intended for a different company, as Activa is based in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada and does not operate in Perth, Western Australia. We kindly encourage you to direct your review to the appropriate company so your feedback can be properly addressed.

Pros

If you don’t mind kissing managements butt you will do good. Until you stand up for yourself

Cons

Senior management is awful. They will expect you to do work well above your pay grade and give you minimum tools to do the job effectively. They have no problem making you do higher position work and never compensating you for it. Management will scream at you for things that are out of your control. If you stand up for yourself they fire you with no reason.

Pros

Great benefits package, great Executive Team, great work/life balance. We build AWESOME homes and we do believe that our customers deserve the very best!

Cons

The culture is no where near what they tell you it is....in fact it's gotten worse. Fear of losing your job runs high, as people are silently let go often and every single day you wonder if you will be next on the chopping block. Even though they preach Integrity, whatever you do, DO NOT stand up for what you believe in to be right. You will be treated like a 3rd rate citizen and bullied until you do what they want. I was sworn at, yelled at and bullied until I complied. I used to LOVE my job and felt respected for my knowledge and dedicated team work. Now I'm not even spoken to! Not even the obligatory "good morning" Nothing. They go out of their way to avoid eye contact with me. If you like being treated like a child and getting the cold shoulder and not spoken to by your manager ....then this is the place for you!
