What’s it like working at Atlantic Group?
AI summary of recent reviews
Employees appreciate their friendly and supportive colleagues at Atlantic Group, along with the opportunity to work at major events like the Australian Grand Prix and Melbourne Cup Carnival. Staff value the fair pay and penalty rates, as well as learning opportunities in bulk preparation and diverse cuisines.
However, there are some potential challenges, including inconsistent management and communication, with unclear instructions and difficulty reaching managers. Organisation at events can be confusing, shift availability varies for casual staff, and career progression opportunities may be limited. The workload can be demanding with long hours and high pressure, and payment processing occasionally requires follow-up.

Bartender
Jun 2026Port Melbourne VIC 3207Less than 1 year in the role, current employee
I do not recommend working for this company, extremely disappointing.
The good thingsWorking at Portsea Polo
The challengesCompany and management is horribly disorganised, some managers are very rude and dismissive. I was hired as a bartender and have only bartended once across multiple shifts. When I enquired about this, I was told I had to "work for the position" despite being hired specifically for the position. Blatant misogyny in roles. Inadequate training and inexperienced staff. Managers don't ask if you can stay back, they just assume it of you without speaking to you about it first, they forget about breaks, and dismiss breaks when reminded. Toxic work environment, clear bias and favouritsm. Only good things about working with this company is the opportunity to work at iconic Melbourne events. I am very reluctant to continue working with this company.

Kitchen Steward
Mar 2026Melbourne VIC 3000Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
Horrible management, no acknowledgment of your existence and rude.
The good thingsSome of my colleagues and being at an event
The challengesManagement is horrible. No clear communication in advance. When you arrive there is no manager and no one knows anything. So you’re dependant on other colleagues who figured stuff out by themselves to tell you where to go, what to do and to clock in. 90% of staff just ignore you or tell you they don’t know anything. When the managers pass by they don’t even acknowledge you nor present themselves. So you have no idea who is responsible and who to talk to. I was told i would have kitchen hand duties but ended up just doing dishes, bins and runner jobs. The runners also ended up just doing dishes. While you’re in the kitchen the managers offer coffee or snacks to chefs and never offer stewards or runners anything. It’s like you don’t exist. So you’re unaware of what’s allowed or not so you just wing it. There is so many staff for ridiculous jobs. The chefs do all kitchen hand jobs and 50% is disrespectful. Food is out too long. we have to guide other staff which isnt our responsibility.

Bartender
Mar 2026Albert Park VIC 3206Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
The worst company I’ve worked for an event.
The good thingsThe gave us a free sandwich and water.
The challengesMy experience working with Atlantic Group at the Formula 1 event was very disorganised. Communication before the shift was poor. I messaged my contact the day before asking where to go but never received a response, and the staff portal only showed the shift time with no location instructions. I arrived at 9:00am for a 10:30am shift but spent over an hour walking around trying to find the correct entrance because many gates were closed and directions were unclear. When I finally arrived, staff couldn’t find my mandate and sent me back and forth between accreditation points before eventually assigning me a random one. We were also never told in advance that we would need hair, makeup and uniforms done onsite, which took hours. Despite arriving early, I didn’t actually start work until 1:00pm and none of that time was paid. For such a major event, the organisation and communication should be much better.
