Pros

Makes good profit for Investors and Senior Management bonuses here and overseas

Cons

I was there for over a decade but since 2014 has gone down-hill big-time. Falling market in China has forced European management to seek higher profits elsewhere and Australian management embarked on deliberate policy of cutting service and quality standards considerably hoping that customers wouldn't notice but they did. Complaints galore hard to deal with. Employee morale plummeted and huge staff turnover further reducing quality. 5 Directors terminated over 2 years, bullying and intimidation rampant. Sick corporate culture.

Pros

The hiring process was fluid. The emails were timely with lots of support for any questions or clarification. The background check was flexible. I was able to participate in the screening process while away from home. I appreciate the flexibility and respectful conversations with the human resource and management teams.

Cons

This was a good experience
