Nightmare

Room Attendant (Former Employee) - Yulara NT - 25 May 2020

I worked in Kings Canyon for about 6 months. Met wonderful people but the living conditions are not the best. very hard without wifi, terrible food and accomodatio that we have to pay. The big managers ladies are so rude, they dont care about the staff. In summer the temperature reach 44 C or more and aircon doesn't work , they dont care if you sleep sweating all night, also if you ask for a better room they just dont care. They love asían workers cause cant complain and get exploted by them

Great experience

Waitress/Kitchen Hand/Bartender (Former Employee) - Alice Springs NT - 19 March 2019

A fun and rewarding way to learn more about Australia's red centre whilst being paid. Meeting new people is always a big plus. The living quarters are well set up and furnished to make your stay comfortable. There is never a dull day in the out back.

Pros

Cost effective

felt like family

general hand (Former Employee) - everywhere - 24 January 2019

everyone there felt like a family and we felt like we had our own community. we all were trained in different job roles to be able to help other departments out as we could only rely on eachother as we were so far out.

Pros

all the locals would come and get to know you

Cons

in the middle of no where

beautiful area to work, freindly dingoes

Public Area Attendant (Former Employee) - kings canyon resort nt - 30 June 2014

waking up looking at the canyon every morning --watching the on coming storms in the summer--the sun rises in the mornings. the multi-cultural staff made work a delight with their differences--made some good mates. the hardest part of the job was working in the rain.
