Pros

Lack of technical skills? Don’t worry, TMF is the place for you. You will do well and get promoted quickly if you know how to do the “sweet talk” and flattery to make the boss happy.

Cons

- Helicoptered incompetent and inexperienced executives from overseas that do not adapt to Australian culture. Long working hours is expected and promoted. - Obedience to authority supporter. Decision-making power is held in fewer favorites’ hands. Employee are scared to speak up, because you will get into trouble or even loss the job tomorrow. - Unfair rewarding system. High performance employees are not rewarded. The bluffing and favorite ones are. - Full of politics. It’s very important who you are close with, and even where you sit. - Very high staff turnover. Capable people cannot survive here.

Pros

None, can’t believe I worked here

Cons

All anyone ever does is lie. No one wanted to help each other or be willing to teach about anything. There were absolutely ZERO performance reviews or any feedback from anyone there. You’re not trained for your job so because you can’t get any feedback when you ask you sometimes doubt yourself. HR is a complete joke they don’t even log on most of the time and they don’t know how real discussions work.
