Reviews
I'm currently working as a Graduate Engineer. My day to day responsibilities depends on the team I am in for the rotation. Mainly they'll include attending scheduled routine meetings, pairing with colleagues on the tasks we picked up, participate/facilitate discussions on the piece of work the team is exposed to, attend knowledge sharing sessions which are super valuable.
I am a Graduate Engineer. My day-to-day responsibilities involve attending and contributing to meetings where I can, learning and involving myself in the team's processes, and building on my technical skills by completing work relevant to the team's roadmap goals.
It can vary from team to team, but in general, I take on tasks to complete (coding). I can also take on scrum responsibilities.

Pros and cons of working at Xero Australia
Pros
The support that you receive as a grad is absolutely amazing!
The company is super flexible when it comes to work hours.
Xero is completely flexible when it comes to working in the office or from home.
We have an extra 5 days off which is amazing! We also have free health insurance.
The entire Grad program is done incredibly well, in terms of both technical skills and acclimating to Xero work environment.
Cons
Doesn't seem to be consistency between rotation teams (experience and standards in one team vary wildly from another).
Budgets for graduates can be slightly limited. Office environment + perks for Canberra is not great.
Some projects can be demanding.
There has been action on this, and more initiatives are planned for, but there are still issues not being attended to yet.
Would be nice if more options/flexibilities could be given when deciding which team graduates could go into for the next rotation.
