Pros and cons of working at Mainfreight Australia
Pros
Great supportive team environment.
The sense of responsibility, and the capacity to learn new things while also having the freedom to try different roles.
You work in a very diverse environment and get to experience all departments.
The dynamic at work is great, everyone gets along well! We work as a team to make sure everything gets complete on time.
There is huge flexibility to start/finish early or late, and the opportunities to duck out of the office or attend appointments is always there.
Cons
It takes a very long time for graduates to move positions when they have provided a timeline.
Repetitive work.
Workload can be unpredictable, with sudden peaks that require immediate attention and long hours to meet deadlines.
Can be a bit chaotic/hectic at times, but it also makes it the most enjoyable once you overcome the challenges.
Global presence, time zone difficulties.
