Pros

Started of working in the warehouse in Sherwood, learnt parts interpreting, got auto electrician apprenticeship, worked field service the coal fields for 5 years. Komatsu looked after us the whole time.

Cons

It can take a lot of time to get things you need sometimes.

Pros

All the staff is very friendly and helpful. You definitely learn a lot from these people as they are extremely knowledgeable, a great place to work out of uni.

Cons

After work fun culture is almost nonexistent. I hope this is not the case with all the teams.

Pros

Pay is generous. Contractors are almost always made permanent. Working conditions are flexible for white collar roles. Business is booming. Progressive technology products.

Cons

Regional offices have little influence at head office level. There is favouritism based on gender, race, nationality, religion. IT services are the worst I've seen in corporate. There's no accountability. Everyone is surging forewards, like our motto, but in different directions. It's not uncommon to have two simultaneous problems to achieve the same thing, as staff can be stubborn and just waste resources instead of choosing to collaborate. Beware, if you come into this business with enthusiasm and passion, you may struggle to find they're actually welcome. This place can turn great people into average performers really quickly.
