Pros
- Embraces Māori culture and is a lead consideration in all worksteams - Opportunity to emerge in a new career path at an entry level - Exposure to varied business functions through a HR perspective (health, education, the environment etc.) - Exciting community/voluntary events to be involved in
Kontras
- Organisation was biting off more than they could chewed. - Heavily under resourced in the People & Capability space to provide a quality service to the organisation - huge people impact. - Undermining or no true consideration and prioritisation of people implications when launching varied organisation frameworks or projects. - Expecting too much of an entry level role without quality training - too much ambiguity - Completing advisory level jobs with no recognition, compensation or career pathway to develop in higher level roles. - Policy and legal implications were always being bent when convenient. - Funding used questionably - again, the bending of rules for convenience or personal interest. - In-house politics; heavily dependant on "respected" families. - Work place bullying
