Terrible culture

Pros

Beautiful office in Sydney. Some really great staff.

Cons

Terrible company culture that trickles down from the Directors. Inherent sexism exists in the office; some of the Directors speak in an appalling manner to their teams. Whilst they claim to be progressive and innovative, they do not allow for any flexibility and overwork a lot of their staff. They prioritize their bottom line over the well being of their people.

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to share your comments & concerns. I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I was personally really gutted by this review. We are committed to creating an inclusive, flexible and innovative environment for all our employees, and I am sincerely apologetic that your experience at WT has not delivered on these factors. We value and consider all feedback and we have just conducted an employee engagement survey with a Great Place to Work in December. This has given us some great insights into where we are excelling and what we need to work on. As a result, we will be conducting employee focus groups to better understand the areas we need to work on and commit to doing so. To this end, I would value a confidential conversation with you so that I can understand more about your experience and perspective. We have been working very hard to cultivate an environment that supports diversity and promotes women in our business. In the recent December survey, 85% of our employees felt that “People here are treated fairly regardless of their sex.” Of course, we want to get this to 100% and we will continue to work to do that. In the Sydney office the result was even higher with 8.9 out of 10 agreeing that “People here are treated fairly regardless of their sex”. We are equally committed to creating a flexible environment that supports our employees and promotes health and wellbeing. Our agile work environment supports employees working more flexibly and we have been growing and developing our workforce to ensure workloads are balanced. We still have a way to go but I think we’re at least on the right path with 9 out of 10 of our employees agreeing that “Taking everything into account, I would say this is a great place to work.” However, we want that experience to be consistent for all employees and this is something we are very focused on and committed to achieving. All of that said, I‘m thankful that you took the time to share your feelings so that we can do more to ensure we create a consistent experience for everyone and I would welcome a more detailed confidential conversation with yourself.

Pros

There are cool projects and sometimes you get to work with really interesting people outside the industry. They also have an EAP because the firm will give you a ton of unecessary stress.

Cons

Experience depends on the team you're in. If you're in a smaller team/ office and are a high performer, good luck getting a promotion as they'd try to slow your progression to keep the others happy. You can hit the KPIs, but the director and HR would team up against you instead of support you. Also, as a high performer, others may be threatened by you and try to bully or amplify your minor mistakes to decrease the confidence level of people around you even if you're simply human, make mistakes, and good at doing your job. The firm claims it has a flat structure, but it really isn't. It wants to grow, but it's unsustainable, and that affects my peers' well-being. If you're joining the company, be friends with the directors. Also, maybe lose some of your sense of integrity. That's how you'll get ahead in this company. I can't do that, so I left.

Pros

moving forward the company is recognise as being progressive, strategic and innovative

Cons

salary - taking advantage of some/many for a company claiming to support women in construction - it was a kick in the gut being paid less than others
