Pros

In terms of working environment, I could honestly sat that they are one of the best. Management, colleagues and even customers are the kindest people that I worked with. Very supportive people, humble and one of the kindest people and well mannered people that you'll met. Aussie people are one of the nicest people you'll ever met in your life.

Cons

Benefits and pay raise is their downside and I'm sure you'll agree once you've join the team. This are the main sentiments that you'll hear in the floor.
