Pros

Option to work from home

Cons

- Leadership losing direction in what they are doing - Subject matter experts are led by people who have no expertise in a that field (e.g. data scientists & software engineers led by people with no such backgrounds) - Middle management gaslighting and would play mind games with you if they don't deem you to be on their side - Lack of transparency in leadership decisions, but they would ask transparency of you - Office politics is rampant, despite being touted to be a great place to work - Remuneration is below market, business is not making revenue to pay for competitive salary - Shifting systems and processes like shifting sands - Lack of proper onboarding procedure - Messy documentation - Lack of trust between team members - They would have high expectations of you, but don't give you the proper support and resources to make that happen. - Always wanting to extract the lack bit of juice out of you, they would send messages after working hours - Lack of career progression - Too many pointless meetings - Burnout rate is super high - Short tenure, may colleagues leave within 1 year. The CMO resigned after just 2 years in position

Pros

- onboarding training, additional upskilling options, and partnerships with registered training organisations - many NDIS participants and providers already use the platform - clients and providers post on the job board when looking for support workers - clients and providers can be contacted directly - organise bookings directly with clients / account managers - arrange meet and greets with clients, family members and carers before mutually agreeing to commence shifts - incident reporting managed through Hireup and their incident response team - helpful and professional staff on the call lines, including for incident response check-ins as needed - casual employment through Hireup, no ABN required - Hireup manages invoices, payroll, tax, and can provide confirmation of total hours worked

Cons

- building up bookings and repeat cients can be difficult when first starting. - minimum requirements for support plans allow little detail, so they are not always filled in sufficiently to start shifts in my perspective. It's important to ask clients about their support needs, expectations of supports, what bookings will involve, and communicate your level of training/experience before commencing (with the safety for the client, yourself and others in mind at all times). - no direct manager, so Hireup cannot provide a professional reference (a client, their family member, or another provider may be able to). - I haven't seen any in-person training through Hireup, only partnerships with other organisations who can provide in-person training if you are eligible and available at those specific times.

Pros

I like having the ability to choose when I want to work. The platform is easy to use.

Cons

None that I can think of. I do wish there were more clients on the platform.
