Pros

APAC & Melbourne specifically have a very inclusive and welcoming culture, where everyone is celebrated for being who they are Being in a hiring role, I can confidently say we have a Diverse & Inclusive hiring process/culture across the business As a recruiter, I feel confident discussing the culture, management and workplace knowing that it's exactly as it is Great benefits including Flexible Paid Time Off, Health & Wellness Benefit, Hybrid working environment & LinkedIn Learning Licence First company I've ever worked for who truly honour the values they proclaim Business and people who are genuinely passionate about the industries we serve - Hospo & Retail

Cons

Sometimes communication from Head Office can be slow and misaligned to APAC A lot of layers of management which can make decision making/actions confusing - in saying that we've recently restructured management in order to improve this moving forward
