Vantaggi
The client-facing staff are amazing. I was lucky enough to work with a small team of 4. We supported each other and grew personally and professionally. Office in Ringwood is filled with light and has regular morning teas.
Svantaggi
Management is untrained, inexperienced and unsupportive. One of the main authority figures is loud, obnoxious and prides herself in “breaking” people. She publicly shares staff and punishes for asking questions. Once, in a supervision meeting, she boasted about abruptly telling a manager to shut up and about the subsequent joy she received from seeing his face drop. When these behaviours were brought to HR, further bullying ensued. Furthermore, wages are low. Support workers are under appreciated and mental health considered a liability. For a health organisation, caring for aged and persons with disabilities, they should really have an understanding of supportive frameworks. The organisational culture is truly insidious, parading as inclusive and supportive. They overwork you and take advantage of strong work ethic.
