Pros and cons of working at CSL
Pros
Working on products that make a difference to peoples lives. Support network. Grad network. The new CSL Melbourne building and labs. Opportunities to grow. Personal development. 8 month (longer) rotations allow you to delve deeper
Hand on experiences, the company/industry as a whole is something I've been passionate about my whole life, meeting lots of different people, being challenged intellectually daily and contributing to higher level issues
Flexibility and support from other employees. The salary is also a plus and tends to increase every year.
Large graduate cohort allows for strong support network. Global growth company allows for many opportunities for career progression. Working on projects that have a direct positive social influence.
The people at the company are amazing. They are super friendly and always open to helping out when they can. I like that they allow graduates to have responsibility and learn through experience and mistakes.
Cons
Due to the nature of the business, there can be a lot going on at certain times and a lot of urgent tasks that can put people under pressure.
Everyone has lots of conflicting priorities, so it can be challenging to try and get all the relevant stakeholders engaged in some projects.
Lots of procedural hurdles to get tasks over the line.
Too much paperwork
It can be disorganised at times and difficult to get information from people in a timely manner.
