Poor workload allocation, plenty of people, especially seniors are overworked while others are bored. Very good company culture outside of office hours.
My department feels Horizontal structure where it is not unusual to ask many questions to my team leaders and get design ideas. I organise social events for my team and they all seem enthusiastic when we are out of office. This is my favourite team of people I have worked with thus far.
Great culture within my team, and great culture within early career professionals
I have felt genuinely supported and cared about by all colleagues; I have been made to feel comfortable approaching my manager and BGL, asking questions of coworkers, and just chatting over lunch. I find socialising and approaching colleagues difficult as it is so I really appreciate this culture. The office is pleasant to be in - people often go for lunch or coffee together which is a nice opportunity to interact with my team or the wider Perth office, and I have enjoyed the end of month drinks which is a really nice way to meet people from different teams. The GHD cocktail gala was also a highlight, it was fun and nice to get to talk to people in a very not-office context. It's also great that there are a lot of other young professionals both in my team and the wider office, and I have made genuine friends in the office.
