Great atmosphere, cool work colleagues and the golf buggies are fun :)

Mechanical Trades Assistant (Former Employee) - Murdoch University WA - 15 November 2019

I loved working here with the maintenance team during the chilled water project throughout the library, the above ground gas pit project, and surveying the plumbing throughout the campus. Worked with a great bunch of blokes who taught me how to weld poly pipe. Awesome atmosphere being surrounded by gardens and the pop up refractory always had a huge variety of food that would change frequently.

Nice environemnt but plenty of red tape.

Manager (Current Employee) - Murdoch WA - 28 August 2017

A very nice environment but the constant threat of the removal of the EBA is draining on the once positive culture. Dictatorial, mediocre leadership at the top is leaving only like-minded middle managers which is counterproductive to innovation, inspiration and diversity.

Pros

Nice environment

Cons

Dictatorial, mediocre leadership at the top

Chance to inspire within tertiary education

Tutor (Current Employee) - Murdoch WA - 3 March 2017

Murdoch university provides me with an opportunity to inspire students and facilitate their learning. It is a mostly growth-orientated environment. As a tutor, there is limited room for internal growth with the absence of a PhD.

Pros

Friendly staff, competent administration, generally psychologically safe working environment

Cons

Occasional office politics
