Yarra Trams Reviews

Pros

Great workplace culture, supportive peers. Generous leave entitlements

Cons

Pay isn't the great especially when you take into consideration what you sacrifice from your personal/social life

Pros

Yarra Trams offered good work life balance.

Cons

During my 8 years I experianced slow career progression.

Pros

Great work environment, my fellow drivers are my favourite thing in the job. Pay is good though I don't think it fully reflects the responsibility and stress of the job.

Cons

Management is currently pushing hard to save money on wages and penalties paid, conflict with the union is imminent. Has really fallen behind on applying current technology.

Pros

They are committed to delivering their service to customers.

Cons

Improvements are slow due to risk aversion and lack of direction.

Pros

Interesting industry, great team and inspiring CEO.

Cons

Mostly poor quality managers and directors.

Pros

* Private organisation with government exposure * Well embedded structure and processes * Team culture strong * Value based organisation * Sustainability and community focus * Good training and development opportunities; if specifically relevant to your role * Ability to positively contribute to a public service

Cons

* Old systems - not very technically/digitally advanced * All about cost cutting - has gone too far in cost savings and struggles to provide minimum level communications. Its a race to the bottom. * Held back by lack of government investment * Very low risk taking environment, meaning very 'safe' work (i.e. tough to be innovative or cutting edge) * Lack of decision making capabilities for some roles * Not the place for you if you aren't comfortable with existing processes and strong need for stakeholder engagement
