A once great engineering culture, hampered by tooling and leadership problems

Software Engineer (Former Employee) - Sydney australia - 6 April 2023

Leadership seems to not trust their staff anymore leading to secrets, surprises and uncertainty. Objectives change frequently, teams are shut down before they have a chance to prove their worth.They also prioritise coding over people skills leading to capable jerks getting preferential treatment. Work life balance is hard to enforce.Still, great benefits, and lots of opportunities internally. There are really lovely people there, and managers tend to care about their teams.The hardest part was generally realising that the tools didn't work the way you expected, like, all the time. Almost everything has to be internally made, leading to waste and stress as you have to learn the internal versions of everything (even C++).

Innovative Company

Industry Head, SEA (Former Employee) - Sydney NSW - 10 February 2020

Great place to work, grow, play and career progression. A typical day would include preparing a presentation to clients and working with internal teams to generate industry insights and trends. I am able to work with some of the biggest global brands and see the results from the hard work that I've put in. The hardest part of the job is working with a bunch of super passionate and smart bunch of people.

Had its ups and downs.

Field Operations Specialist (Former Employee) - Sydney, Australia - 7 December 2019

Overall decent experience with good compensation, interesting work for a remote position, and office perks. Low points were the TVC versus full-time employee culture and the micro-management policies imposed by the higher management.

Incredible people and place

Senior Business Development Associate (Former Employee) - Sydney NSW - 31 March 2019

Immediately you're surrounded by incredibly capable people, where you'll find yourself growing, and uncovering abilities beyond your wildest expectations. Everyone is expected to be "Googley" meaning if they can help you, they will, which is invaluable for personal development and cross function collaboration.

Pros

Free food, events, work community and environment

Cons

Googlers are usually lifers. Meaning there is limited room for job advancement.
