    Great Staff but Selfish Management
    The good thingsThe regular staff members
    The challengesHaving to work with a DC manager who has no idea and does not respect the employees at all. His main priority is himself.

    If you want to make money, you can work here cause they have a lot of overtime. If you want to grow up in your career, do not work here.
    The good thingsYou can earn lots of money if you accept to do overtime.
    The challengesVery bad management. Managers don't know anything, I found some people are not qualified or have the relevant degree.

    9 to 10 years in the role, former employee
    A unique opportunity to fast-track your career with a globally recognised Australian brand.
    The good thingsGreat opportunity to create your own career. Pay is typically above industry average, the company is more than willing to invest in the tools to help you do your job better. Lots of peripheral perks also.
    The challengesLike any organisation experiencing high growth and expansion while at the forefront of technology there are constant challenges and the pace is high. If you're not in a position to commit 100% or looking for something that's not particularly challenging then it's not an ideal environment.
