Reviews
I help monitor and manage the Indvidual risk rules to stop fraud and close the tax gap.
I am definitely satisfied with my work as it is meaningful, exciting and overall enjoyable. Sometimes the amount of work can be too much and I am working above my capacity.
I am currently in my second rotation with one of teams under Policy Analysis and Legislation. I work on a various type of legal research, and learn to write different types of legal documents. I also work on a project with other graduates to develop a new tax policy.

Pros and cons of working at Australian Taxation Office (ATO)
Pros
The flexibility, culture, and career opportunities.
Great friendly culture at the workplace where team leaders and colleagues are always willing to assist.
Flexible working hours. Providing plenty of training.
The graduate program is structured well... Itโs the best program that I have ever experienced (and know of).
It provides a supportive and inclusive environment for career progression and learning.
Cons
A lot of bureaucracy that isn't managed well.
Even for internal job applications, people are put in merit pools and go through a tedious job application process.
The pay increase from year to year could be better.
The limited team building or social activities available.
The procedural nature of every task limits the ability to work freely with creativity.
