Pros

* Tech leads and engineers - not only do they care about delivering great tech solutions, but they are also some of the most helpful, empathetic people I've had the pleasure of working with. The tech leads in particular truly care about amplifying the careers of the people around them. * Typical startup perks - gym, food, ping pong table etc

Cons

There have been retention issues in technology for quite some time. This is due to: * Empathy and compassion is seen as a weakness by upper management * "Company vision" is a checklist of tech milestones, with no consideration of the culture of Technology * No support * Management is incredibly toxic * Unrealistic timelines and a culture of blame

Pros

Popcorn and Tim Tam's in kitchen.

Cons

Too much micro management especially from the Haymans This place is toxic. Was hired to work on a project and a certain product owner felt threatened. Ask the right questions and get zero answers. Was mandatory to be on site 5 days a week which is fine, however when you get dragged into a meeting at 5pm which finishes at 8pm, and you are expected to still rock up to work at 9am is a joke. People travel to cbd via trains. Product owners think they are a BA's with next to none BA experience. The CEO thinks he is god and has all the solutions and loves the attention. Nah. Will never work there again. Lochie the product owner is the worst. Fat and dumb.
