Pros

Great team to work with. A terrible management fosters great teams to build and support each other

Cons

Micro management, inexperienced CEO, puppets of Dr Forrest. HR is useless. No checks and balances in place. Toxic culture. Lot of brown nosing.

Pros

None that I can think about

Cons

Toxic. Hypocritical. Disheartening. Fortescue paints a polished picture to the public, but behind the scenes it's a very different story. The workplace is marred by favoritism, racism, nepotism, and just about every other “-ism” that creates division and disillusionment. > You won’t see it at first glance — the slogans, posters, and safety briefings all promote inclusion and respect. But the actual culture on the ground tells another story entirely. Seeing is believing. > If you're not part of the favoured few, expect to be overlooked, ignored, or sidelined — no matter how skilled or dedicated you are. It's a place where who you know matters more than what you contribute, and where the silent suffering of many is masked by surface-level PR.
