Pros

Travelling business class to San Fran, great pay, access to latest technology

Cons

Saw hard working employees get bullied by managers with HR doing nothing about it, complained about sexist comments from a male manager to HR and was 'conveniently' made redundant 6 weeks later. Happens all the time within the AU HO, and HR do nothing about it. This person then went on to take over my role, which in the end I discovered he was stabbing me in the back the whole time to get it, it's a toxic culture where people walk over you to be promoted and will steal your ideas to make themselves look good. Don't work here, it's soul destroying.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
