A lot of admin work - booking meetings, writing minutes, making presentation packs, liaising with eas to organise higher-ups attendance. a lot of work is given to you that others in the team would rather not do - the important thing is to have a good attitude regardless of how passionate you are about it as that attitude is what people will talk about when you roll off/apply for internal roles.

Pros and cons of working at Westpac Group

Pros

  • The quality of the work and the people you work with.

  • Huge amount of opportunity to learn and grow.

  • Flexibility, atmosphere.

  • Rotating around between teams ensures I am learning lots and meeting heaps of people.

  • Great extracurricular opportunities to be involved in - from employee action groups to Toastmasters clubs.

Cons

    • Sometimes it is difficult to contact/work with departments outside of your area.

    • Because it's so big, it's very slow to move with change and onboarding to systems.

    • Having set days to come into the office. Hard to find a job after graduate program finishes.

    • Too many systems.

    • We are big, old and clunky. This means things can take ages to actually get done, and there can be heaps of red tape.
