Please comment on your company's office space, location and facilities. And while we're at it, please tell us a little about the dress code.
Really nice modern office, 100% hot desk situation booked through an app/website. Limited ability to store things at the office so you're bringing everything back and forth when you do go into the office. Undersupply of private meeting and probably too many public "catch up" areas. No strict dress code, and most people wear reasonably casual, corporate attire.

Beautifully and considerately designed, always kept clean and well-maintained

The office is modern and spacious. I dislike cramped, dull spaces with low natural light but the office is very open with plenty of natural light

The office building is beautiful. The space is extremely open and accommodating for any type of work style. The facilities are next level - the bathrooms and change rooms are extremely clean and well designed. The meeting rooms are very practical and easy to use for when you need to catch up with people. The location is great, right in the heart of Fortitude Valley, however wouldn't want to be leaving too late. The dress code is also quite flexible. There is a high level of pride in the way people present themselves at work, but there is no strict guidelines on what to wear. There is great freedom to dress the way that best represents yourself.

Office itself is lovely, and the location is great. The space itself can feel a little impersonal due to no permanent desks. To make it more personal it would be nice to keep some items here or be able to store things, but there seems to be a lack of lockers/facilities to do so. I was told upon arrival to not even bother trying with the lockers as they are always taken/booked, which means I can't bring my gym gear so it I am more likely to WFH on days I have more items with me which impacts our physical human connection in the office. I also observe that we spent a lot of time, effort and money into our beautiful building and for it to be locally sourced and full of recycled components, but we chose to fit it out with a lot of plastic and Dell/HP computers. Even making a small switch to non plastic and recycled chairs or recycled aluminium computers would align better with our environmental goals, and ensure all our hard work in other spaces like the recycled bottles flooring is supported by our other design decisions too.

Office space: Spacious with great natural lighting Facilities: Good Location: Good, however Fortitude Valley is not always safe so I like to leave the office before 5pm. The company does provide security assistance for those who go to the office outside of typical hours. Dress code: Typical business attire but Friday's are more relaxed. Overall, dress code is pretty flexible.

Office space is newly built, modern and clean. We use a hot desk system in office as hybrid working is encouraged. The desk space is huge, computer monitors are new and good quality. Location is a 5 minute walk to Valley Metro Station and there is paid parking onsite. Everyone dresses exactly as they want to - if you would like to be causal, you can. If you would like to express your personality via bright clothing, you can. If you would like to wear a suit everyday, you can.

We have many locations across South East Queensland and all the ones I have been to are great- even at the sewerage treatment plants and pump stations. The dress code is pretty standard and everybody who isn't in PEP gets casual Friday and fun dress up days for Christmas, Easter, football games etc

Companies offices are good. There is a possibility of having to hot desk at points throughout your time here. However the businesses offices are good, with facilities to shower etc if you ride here. The dress code is business casual, so no need to the suit and tie.

Company office space is good. Some people work at hot desks rather than a designated desk which is a limitation. Dress code is formal yet to a degree informal. Location fantastic. Facilities are normal (no coffee machine or anything fancy).
