John Holland Employee Review
Toxic culture
Site Engineer (Former Employee) - Pakenham VIC - 14 February 2023
Don’t recommend it to anyone who’s friendly and team worker, it’s a toxic environment and not supportive at all. You need to be professional because you not getting any help. And that’s why they pay well coz no one can handle this environment

Do not work for John Holland... EVER!!!!
Site Engineer (Former Employee) - Melbourne VIC - 9 July 2020
John Holland has no interest in anything or anyone other than its own survival. The senior managers and specifically Alliance/Project Managers quite openly state that there is no such thing as fatigue and will work project employees to excess. Don’t complain or you’ll be removed You can and will be dismissed without notice and they will lie about their reasons for dismissal. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY
Pros
Absolutely none
Cons
Excess unpaid hours. They treat you badly.
