Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation (CSC)

There is a decent culture at CSC. Any time that there have been issues, I have had full support of my manager and the HR team. There are sometimes after work get togethers which are fun.

Office has a very fun, social atmosphere. Lots of opportunities to socialise outside of work

I would say the culture is overall very positive. While I have had the displeasure of hearing some consistently negative impressions of the people and/or culture, what I have seen around the office and after hours (including from these individuals) has been overwhelmingly positive. Most teams are comprised of wonderfully supportive and dedicated people. Most people I have spoken to are content with the opportunities for career progression and are fond of their team. It can be a bit frostier between different teams - although this appears to be from individual relationships (such as the negative people I mentioned previously having bad impressions of members of other teams based on personal interactions.) Although this is restricted to a small number of employees, it has been disappointing that these people have been able to position themselves as mentors and approach the graduates, to share (what I believe to be unfair) impressions of senior staff members. Many of the colleagues have quite strong social relationships which makes day-to-day work more enjoyable. The business is very generous with learning, team-building and cultural events and supports a healthy work-life balance which I can see reflected in the culture of its employees.

There are team leaders, managers, senior managers and executive. However, it only feels like the exec are hierarchy. Great people to work with and outside of work events are common.

Overall good culture, everyone is friendly. But again, when it comes to money stuff a lot could be better. Generally unclear what I should be expected to earn after completion of grad role, and the upper management does nothing to make thing clearer.
