Pros

Great grad program takes you to Auckland for 3 conferences to meet the other 120 grads across the business. Leaders are very approachable and contactable especially for Grads if proactive. Leaders/section managers have a strong focus on employee development so if you want to travel or work in different teams they do their best as they see the value in a broad range of experience. Managers are also really happy for you to pursue random extra curricular projects/activities both internally and externally such as research/mentoring/societies conferences etc For the Aussies, would highly recommend spending 1+ months NZ/Auckland if you get the chance. Beca is a beast in NZ. Great culture, social club, Friday drinks, annual functions etc. good work life balance too.

Cons

Being a tier 2/3 company in Australia means the big/exciting projects are not as common. However this is a strength in a way as this gives opportunities to work in a growing company with lots of smaller projects giving you variety. If you want the big projects then a stint in NZ is a must

Pros

Great learning curve, but no place for a career.

Cons

Its like working for a cult. The ego of the place is utterly revolting, the culture is one of bullying. For an engineering firm it lacks business innovation, and its salarys are appauling.
