What’s it like working at V/Line?
AI summary of recent reviews
Employees appreciate the friendly and supportive colleagues at V/Line, along with the flexibility offered, particularly for head office staff and parents. The benefits, including free Myki passes and competitive pay for those on the Enterprise Agreement, are valued, as are the training and development opportunities available for learning new skills. The organisation also provides stable employment with good job security.
However, there are some potential challenges, including management consistency and communication across different areas of the business. Work-life balance varies by role, with some positions requiring shift work, night shifts, and weekend work. Processes and systems are frequently mentioned as needing modernisation, with multiple approval layers that can slow progress. Regular organisational structure changes can make it challenging to track responsibilities, and career progression pathways could be more clearly defined. Additionally, workload can be demanding in certain roles, particularly those requiring extended hours without paid overtime.

Deeply Flawed Leadership and Culture
The good thingsThe flexibility is great for head office based staff.
The challengesWhile there are some dedicated individuals and the organisation offers stable employment, the broader workplace experience is undermined by poor leadership and a problematic culture.
Management capability is a major concern. Many leaders appear untrained and ineffective, often defaulting to hiding behind HR and rigid processes rather than demonstrating accountability or genuine leadership. Issues are managed procedurally rather than constructively, which erodes trust and respect.
The culture itself can be quite toxic. It is not uncommon to see employees visibly distressed — seeing someone in tears in the office has become a regular occurrence. This points to a clear lack of psychological safety and meaningful support from management.
There is also a noticeable “boys’ club” dynamic. Advancement does not appear to be based on merit, but rather tenure and internal favouritism. This creates a disengaging environment for high performers and discourages diversity in leadership.
