Pluspunten

Absolutely nothing that I gained here. A huge relief after leaving.

Minpunten

I joined after going through an exhausting 8-round interview process, expecting to work in an environment that valued talent and hard work. However, the reality was far from it. Once you’re in, the pressure continues with unnecessary and overly dramatic evaluations that feel more like a performance than a genuine effort to improve or support employees. There’s no real freedom of speech—you’re expected to conform to what management wants, and any differing opinions are either ignored or dismissed. Support is lacking, and micromanagement is the norm. The culture is toxic, with long-term employees barely acknowledging new hires, making it an isolating and unwelcoming environment. To make things worse, compensation is below market standards, yet management spends excessively on entertaining potential clients with lavish meals that often go to waste. No meaningful projects are available in the Perth region, leaving employees under constant pressure with little opportunity to grow or contribute meaningfully. If you’re considering joining, be prepared for a challenging and unsupportive environment that may not be worth the effort you put in to get there.

Pluspunten

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Minpunten

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
