Melbourne VIC 30002 to 3 years in the role, former employee

The work culture is the worst I have ever encountered. It takes the word 'toxic' to a new level.

The good thingsPeople. Modern office.

The challengesThe work culture is challenging. HR is constantly occupied due to the high staff turnover. Although many good people work within the organisation, they are often overseen by managers who lack essential leadership and soft‑skill capabilities. The continual cycle of staff leaving and new employees starting creates a persistent lack of experience across the workplace. The ‘blame game’ others have mentioned is very real and contributes to an overall unpleasant environment. It’s telling that many staff choose to leave even without another job lined up, which speaks volumes about how difficult their experience has been and their urgency to move on.

Short time, not a long time type employer. Competitive pay with poor management

The good thingsThe staff are friendly, external parties we dealt with were always great. Flexible working

The challengesPoor management with no leadership capabilities, toxic blame culture, lack of development, constant restructures and no real beneficial staff perks.

AusNet thinks creatively on how to utilise their talent and provides opportunities to stretch and grow. There is so much going on to get involved with.

The good thingsThe People team are a talented and supportive bunch. Great to work with. I had great 'on the job' career opportunities that I may not have come across elsewhere. The business is leading the energy transition - very exciting time! The Employee Network Groups provide an opportunity to contribute to something bigger beyond your role.

The challengesThe number of leaders I had during my tenure.
