Pros

The other consultants are great. Met a lot of good people. Clients are good too. Enjoyed doing work for high end Australian clientelle. Gained some good experience in the consulting industry.

Cons

Low pay for the level and complexity of coding work. Management do not seem to be sufficiently skilled in working with neurodiverse individuals. Established staff members that I had good working relationships with and who contributed to a high quality and disability inclusive workplace had a high turnover from the company. Very high turnover of junior staff. High pressure to gain clients. No overtime pay. When I asked for adjustments to be made by management to suit my working style as part of my autism I was told that my requests were unreasonable even though what I was asking for was written in my consultant profile given to each client I had worked with. Lack of understanding of neurodiversity seemed to be only on the auticon management side in my experience which I found extremely strange for a company with a 100% formally diagnosed autism core workforce.

Pros

auticon's consulting team (and colleagues of client organisations) are great people to talk to and was one of the best parts of working here. Some flexible working arrangements on whether to work remotely, on-site or mix the two; this depends on individual client requirements, though.

Cons

Lower than average pay rates compared to the market rate. Management may contact you and assert that they have a right to further information upon request, if you are away on personal/sick leave for more than a day. Legally, only HR has a right to request the required documents. Inability on management's part to take feedback on board when a consultant raises a concern about the management team's conduct while working with consultants on client projects.

Unethical Company

Pros

Great workmates and a shared neurodiversity in junior and low level staff which was a very positive experience. Very large multinational company with very high annual profits. Minimal training or qualifications need to be obtained during your employment. Opportunities to "Volunteer" at promotional and marketing events outside work hours. Weekend, public holiday and overtime work need not be documented because it won't be paid for or compensated so much less paperwork to deal with.

Cons

Low salary. Long hours. Significant micromanagement from senior staff and lack of compliance to standard Australian workplace legal requirements for disability inclusion. Zero representation on senior staff from the disability community. Lack of accountability of senior staff despite repeated serious cases of potential wage theft and repeated reports of systematic bullying of vulnerable protected category workers by high level executives. Use of an Australian workplace law loophole that allows disability employers to pay disabled employees doing high level tech jobs at below the award wage. Extremely high junior employee turnover. Issues with employee privacy disclosure breaches to senior management from confidential counselling sessions.
