Process / Project Engineer
Jul 2024North Ryde NSW 21133 to 4 years in the role, former employee
A wonderful place for personal growth
The good thingsI developed a lot at AstraZeneca and worked with some incredibly clever and talented people.
The challengesI worked at Macquarie Park through a period where the site was preparing to shut down, and was saved by a large contract for product, the attention to detail of some of the site engineers and an intense programme of capital works.

Toxic. Never again.
The good thingsPerks - good salary, discounted health insurance
The challengesIncredibly toxic environment. Senior management opts to let complaints pass and promote toxic behaviour. Cannot seem to retain talent in their CVRM medical team and that is testament to the poor culture and management. Numerous meetings throughout the day, so you're actually working well into the evenings. Very poor work life balance.

Little more than a joke really. I worked hard and was awarded and promoted, but as always - politics is king
The good thingsNot much. Unlike management, some of the lower end workers have a soul.
The challengesManagement have their heads in the sand and are incompetent at their roles. It is not a fair workplace in the sense that some people get away with anything, while others get picked up any time they step out of line.
