    An experience, which has scarred me for life.
    The good thingsNoting comes to mind
    The challengesA retaliatory and punitive culture, which does not value employee well-being. I strongly encourage all prospective candidates to reach out to former employees before accepting any opportunity.
    Human ResourcesWe're sorry to hear this. Four to five years is significant, and "scarred" tells us something went seriously wrong. We take allegations of retaliation and punitive culture very seriously. If you're willing to share details confidentially, please reach out to recruitmentanz@veolia.com. We need to understand what happened and prevent others experiencing this. Thank you for speaking up.

    Wetherill Park NSW 216415 to 16 years in the role, current employee
    Operational efficiency can be greatly improved.
    The good thingsSome great colleagues in the other team
    The challengesThe workplace lacked clear direction and support from management. The manager often had unrealistic expectations, poor communication, and did not provide the guidance or resources needed for the team to succeed. Decisions were inconsistent, and concerns raised by employees were rarely addressed. Overall, it was a challenging environment that made it difficult to perform effectively or grow professionally.
    Human ResourcesFifteen to sixteen years is a long commitment, and you deserve clear direction, realistic expectations, and genuine support—not a challenging environment that holds you back. We hear you on the inconsistent decisions and concerns being overlooked. This is fixable. Please reach out to your HRBP so we can discuss what's not working and what you need to perform and grow effectively. You shouldn't have to struggle this hard after so long with us.
