Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of exposure to different opportunities Great people and teams - depending on where you are in the business Learning on the job is excellent, including lots of opportunity to showcase skills at industry events

Cons

Slow career progress, limited by org expansion rather than led by your skills and performance Salary seems comparatively low Leadership conservative, Australian run executive de-humanises decision-making and is out of touch with realities of the business Siloed teams and conservative growth strategy Disconnect between ridiculously overdone (and surely hugely expensive) internal 'culture' programmes and the reality of how the business is run day to day
