RecommendsPros
Good people, reasonable hours, great views, Technologically pretty savvy.
Nice location, collegial atmosphere. Easy access to all levels of people in CompanyCons
Modest salaries, limited bonus in IT. Limited breadth of Capital markets exposure.
At time decision making process constrained in speed by Semi Government natureAdvice to Management
Keep people in one building if at all possible. Make sure to keep up the excellent level of communications in the Town Hall process.

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOPros
Interesting work, all decisions flow through Treasury before the money button's pushed.
Time served looks good on resume especially if a career with Gov is planned. Also one of the few areas where there is the real chance of moving to the private sector - especially banking.Cons
Lots of them:
- poorly paid
- culture of "no"
- generation divide challenges open plan design
- mind numbing routinesAdvice to Management
Bring back the economists. Teach people the etiquette of open plan activity based offices (e.g. loud conversations)

I have been working at New South Wales Government full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Exposure to financial, banking and legal market in the area of infrastructure. While contributing to decision making process of Government. Good work life balance
Cons
Remuneration is slightly below market with comparable private sector role. Very high demanding at times, which requires working beyond contracted hours.
Advice to Management
Good development of professional goals. Opportunity to work autonomously is a plus. Good development in team collaboration.
