Vantaggi
Decent pay, good overtime rates when you can get it, and the actual job itself and all that entails
Svantaggi
A venomous culture of deception and manipulation. You can become an OIC after completing a 6 month graduate program and be an OS a year later. Bullying, harrassment and unprofessional behaviours are rewarded. Just goes to show if your in bed with OHS managers, the union, priority one and middle/upper management, you can climb that ladder and destroy whomever you chose. There is no equal opportunity, only corruption, manipulation and favoritism to make it appear otherwise on paper. Shifts are long with alot of ramping,shifts without breaks, and disrespectful behaviour from public, QAS staff and hospitals. If you speak up about anything, your ostracised, career blocked, and ultimately be bullied out of a job.
