Great team to work with but run poorly, all over the place.

Dispatch Operator & Pickpacker/General hand (Former Employee) - Darra QLD - 13 November 2019

Great team to work with but run poorly, all over the place. Original location in darra was with nice managers but lack of communcation between managers and staff. Work was all over the place and the Wacol warehouse was worse.

overall steady job

Acrylic moulder (Current Employee) - Salisbury QLD - 8 March 2019

Overall its a job weather you like it or not, management are fairly useless, the work is repetitive same stuff day in day out, the people? well all i can say is too many cheifs and not enough indians. Too many people think they run the place.

Pros

steady income

Cons

repetitive work, people suck, too many people picking up the slacks of other workers.

Poor management and high workplace bullying

Factory Hand (Former Employee) - Wacol QLD - 28 February 2019

Worked here for many months had some great times their but that was only 1 off days when leading hand wasn't working! Bullying is just out of control and nothing gets done about it report after report! from many employers. The workers dont seem to care about the health and safety of other workers around them, more so the forklift drivers. OHAS is very poor! and just worries about sacking people but can't explan a safe way to do things. Sales are dropping majorly due to the carelessness of workers and mangers thought out the whole company! Many workers have been walked up too and lost their jobs straight after important jobs are complete!

Pros

Their honestly is none

Cons

Workplace bullying, Poor management, Unsafe workers and forklift drivers

The Changing of the Guard

Corporate Receptionist/HR Assistant (Current Employee) - Salisbury QLD - 11 November 2018

The biggest setback in this company is that senior management are 45+ yo men. Its hard to instill change in an environment that refuses to do so, to be constantly fighting the same battle every day is disheartening.

Cons

45hour working weeks

Productive workplace, welcomed with opened arms

Warehouse Worker (Former Employee) - Brisbane QLD - 4 November 2017

working here was good on so many levels, the learning was pretty straight forward and easy to pick up. some workers were friendly but others just see you as a new worker and don't want to help. Didn't put my thought of the place done just made me want to work harder to earn there trust. All in all the workplace is one I would recommend to others and a job I would recommend people to go for.

Pros

Good hours, good pay, friendly managers and supervisors

Cons

Within drving distance of home.

Night Shift Cleaner (Former Employee) - Brisbane QLD - 21 February 2017

I enjoyed working at this company because it had easy transport there. I worked night shifts which were convenient for me. I gained a lot of experience working for this company, and learned a lot about my role. The type of work this job entailed, required a lot of communication amongst co-workers, which I enjoyed. The most difficult part of my job was cleaning the tunnel because the conditions inside were very unpleasant. The most enjoyable part of the job was painting car canopies.

Great team of people on the shop floor!

General Factory Hand (Former Employee) - Salisbury, QLD - 1 May 2012

A typical day at work would involve working in any of a variety of areas within the factory on a priority basis.Tasks would range from sanding spoilers and other plastic parts for sports kits to assembly of Tonneaus (Ute lids), Vacuum-Forming Boot liners and other parts and general duties on either of the Robotic Paint Lines.They were a great crew of co-workers and made the job a joy to work there!
