Pros and cons of working at Linfox ANZ
Pros
The environment here is phenomenal, the ability to work within a team that greatly values your output from the work you are completing.
The opportunity to experience different areas of the business... Great introductory to a career.
Linfox has strong company values in safety, health & wellbeing, as well as striving for operational progression.
At this site there are multiple good mentors that continuously find time to help your development and growth.
Great culture, big company and a focus on continuous improvements all the time.
Cons
There is no guaranteed employment post-graduation, and the lack of clear career progression paths can leave graduates uncertain about their future within the company.
The onboarding process can be inconsistent, with some graduates feeling there is not enough planned work or guidance, leading to periods of confusion and downtime.
Grads must take a proactive step which isn't a bad thing, however sites usually have no clue what to do with a grad.
Due to the frantic and fast-paced nature of the industry, sometimes it can cause stress.
No guaranteed employment post-graduate program and long hours.
