Reviews
Very satisfied with the direction and support but also autonomy over day-to-day responsibilities that are made sure to align with my developmental goals and interests in skills.
The work I do is engaging and is helping me to develop my technical skills. My day-to-day involves short-term and long-term planning as well as ad-hoc requests. The mix between ad-hoc and forecast work is refreshing, I'm able to work towards long-term project goals but some days are spiced up by something new.
I am a grad working in change management. As a grad, I am still learning a lot and so my work is supported heavily by senior change managers.

Pros and cons of working at Telstra
Pros
Supportive and friendly environment that pushes me to learn and grow. I have been given lots of opportunities in my role as a graduate. Hybrid/flexible working is also wonderful.
The people and culture are extremely welcoming and kind, not just to graduates but throughout the organisation.
Really enjoy working with the best technology, the culture and the ability to be myself and learn new things everyday and really enjoy the ability work flexible.
The culture and people provide support for personal and professional development. Flexible working arrangements and flexible hours.
The culture, the support from teams and everyone at the company especially for graduates and newcomers. The infinite learning and development opportunities with real value conversations about personal development with team leaders.
Cons
Because it is so large, coordination of work can be difficult, meaning tasks are being done by multiple teams at once.
It is very big.
Having to manage different time zones via hybrid working which also means we can't always see our team mates face to face, losing that in person benefit.
There is confusion about the structure of teams, groups, and functions.
Often difficult to get things done. Such a large company means many people involved in decision making.
