Pros

There is a significant amount of overtime and weekend work available.

Cons

The organisation is consistently understaffed, resulting in frequent pressure on employees to work overtime, weekends, and undertake assignments away from home to compensate for staffing shortages. The basic salary offered is significantly below industry standards when compared with other companies performing similar roles. There is a clear lack of consideration for employees’ work–life balance.
