Pros
The pension is aligned to the NR final salary pension and can be transferred over. The employees contracts state 35 hours per week, but typically people work 42-46, there are a few people that work in excess of 80 hours per week though.
Cons
There was widespread bullying and harassment by managers whom had been promoted on the their technical and academic ability but lacked any interest or skill in managing people. The company frequently pays people off to leave the company and sign compromise agreements, indeed the union representatives commented that they had drawers full of such cases. There is a distinct lack of policies and processes and depending whom you are made a difference to which were employed or not - such as advertising career opportunities, appraisals, time and attendance recording, and annual BONUS payments! If you challenge the management about any aspect of their employment, such as errors in wages or try and raise a grievance, at best you are likely to find yourself on Torrens Street without a job and at worst you are likely to find yourself being screamed and shouted at by management in their library.
