NSW Government Employee Review
Very poor
Legal Officer (Former Employee) - NSW Trustee and Guardian ( Formerly Office of the Protective Commissioner - 9 August 2021
Work environment in government service not conducive to the exercise of initiative and innovation. Rewards are provided to those who toe the metaphorical line and any one who refuses to accept that proposition is generally not well regarded by those who have the power to make decisions and policy. In short show signs of a desire to change the system and be creative and you will inevitably be left behind or relegated to the also rans when promotions are in the offing! Bitter yes, successful in my chosen career YES!!!
Pros
None I can think off
Cons
Expectation that you will work for nothing

Unnecessary Mirco management.
Administration Officer (Current Employee) - Parramatta NSW - 24 March 2022
Having worked for a NSW Government agency before, prepare to deal with lots of micro management and report based assessments. They love their reports! Top heavy middle management too.
Pros
Flex time
Cons
