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.
Average standard however aligned with responsible public spending - which brings into question why we pay consultants with all their largess when it comes to staff benefits etc and to add injury, we pay a profit margin on top. Smells like double standards and political favouritism when budget setting.

Very well maintained

Office spaces and facilities are adequate. Location could improve to be more central. Dress code is business dress.

The office space I'm in is a little underwhelming, the elevators are very slow, the water fountains rarely work, the fridges on many floors are quite full so I bring a esky/lunchbox - however, the location is great, the dress-code has never been an issue people are professional in their appearance but not snobbish and rude. - it feels accepting to all.

More than adequate office space and facilities. Dress code is business wear.

Offices are fine to good. Aesthetically not much to say, but each desk is sit stand with two monitors and an adjustable chair. Each floor has a kitchen, two toilets each for male and female, and a disabled/gender neutral toilet. Each floor is accessed by a lift. The building I'm in actually has a free small gym that can be used by people working in the building, as well as a large bike parking area. Location is a few minutes walk from a train station, and quite accessible by tram as well. You can usually get to the shopping district of the city and back within a half hour lunch break if you need to run errands. Services Australia does take its physical/ergonomic safety seriously, so they are very responsive to fixing things such as broken monitors, or even providing a specialised mouse or padded wrist rest if required. Dress code is no jeans, no sports clothes, neat, no political statements, and nothing offensive, so pretty normal. Different teams have different expectations r.e. dress, but I definitely haven't had to wear suit and tie to work ever (except when visiting canberra).

it's fine, nothing great or bad about any of it. The uniform isn't great, it feels and looks cheap, so I do not feel very professional wearing it.

No big issues a few issues with heating and cooling of the buildings and access to parking for all employees.

Facilities vary between buildings but are generally sufficient and well cared for. Some maintenance requests take a long time to be actioned which would be my only gripe to do with facilities (eg. a tap on my floor has been out of use for longer than I have been in this team which is now almost 3 months leaving only 1 working tap for a whole floor to use)

The office space is adequate, so are the facilities. We have to wear uniforms as we are customer facing, but non-customer facing wear business casual.

It's nice overall, great location, neat fit out. being Public service its lame we dont get any of the building's perks or even tea and coffee but oh well.
Graduate, Perth - 30 Oct 2023
Current office is clean and well kept. Current floor can be empty on some days and full on others. Dress code is smart casual
Graduate, Brisbane - 30 Oct 2023
Space and location are good, no amenities such as tea or coffee

When I first started, I worked in service delivery in a smart centre, the dress code was non-existent for some people and was not enforced. I have since worked at multiple offices and let me tell you something - you would think that some of the staff here were never toilet trained or simply can't read at all. countless times I have seen toilet stalls that have been left in a state by the previous user, despite every stall having a laminated sign that says 'please clean up after yourself'. I have seen urine on the seat, poo on the seats, the walls, all over the toilet bowl. WTF A filter tap in the kitchen in my current office has been broken for over a month and still hasn't been fixed.

I like the office as it is right now. I know there will be a refit though and there is no privacy for vulnerable customers in the refit design. The uniform stands out too much outside of work which poses a safety risk.

The new building in Adelaide for Services Australia is great. The downside is that hot-desking is still a requirement. This creates an unsettled feeling when coming into the office and feeling the need to clean the workstation before use to prevent the risk of contracting communicable illnesses.
Graduate, Adelaide - 30 Oct 2023
The office is well equipped but I find it inconvenient to be on the 10th floor. I dress in business casual most days.
Graduate, Adelaide - 30 Oct 2023
Very modern open office with good facilities.
Graduate, Canberra - 30 Oct 2023
We just moved into a new building.
