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.
Some office spaces are better than others. 220 London circuit is 10/10 while Bowes st offices are poorly kept, has stained furniture and is rarely full

Facilities are nice and modern. Only small issues are the noise can be loud if office is full, and the lifts can sometimes close too quickly

I have always chosen to work from office. Currently I am in 220LC. It works perfectly for me as I live nearby. Only issue would be, when I am unable to book a desk. This is when everyone decides to come to office on the same day as others. Regarding the dress code, I mostly wear smart causal.

Parking is expensive.

The two offices I have worked in are great buildings. There is fantastic end of trip facilities for cycling, plenty of windows and generally good ICT. The buildings are very open, which means you often get to see friends or colleagues walk past and say hello. There are also plenty of quiet spaces and meeting rooms.

The workplace is good with many easily accessible facilities. Daily dress code is casual smart.

Parking is expensive which means busses are a must, but the actual office is modern and has great facilities.

We do not have a dress code. Since it is corporate job, I prefer to be in formal dress code. The Winyu House is very spacious with plenty of workspaces.

Really great office, location and facilities. There are no unreasonable dress codes.

While fun and exciting being at Callam offices, it's certainly a poorly designed and hard-to-work-in space. It's loud and disruptive and either way too hot or way too cold. It's also highly inaccessible. No end-of-trip facilities. No gym. ACT Government should provide discounts for a local gym network to support wellness. Dress code is great - there really isn't one and I have never had anyone speak to me about my personal choices.

The office space in Callam Offices is not so appealing, especially when the roof leaks during rain. Some of the facilities are run down and need renovations. The dress code is smart casual. 5/10 However, the office in Dickson is very inviting with its use of natural light to brighten the office space. It's more open and spacious to work in. 8/10

Office spaces are old and dated

The location of the office is excellent - easily accessible via public transport and close to a range of great cafes and restaurants. Being a new building, the facilities are all high quality, especially the kitchen with a range of appliances offered to prepare meals (including microwaves, convection ovens, sandwich press, coffee machine, fridges/freezers and filtered cold and boiling water). The office also gets lots of natural sunlight and is well air-conditioned. The dress code is smart casual, but staff are welcome to wear whatever they like, provided it is appropriate and not too revealing.

Depends on where you're at! The city offices / newer buildings are extraordinary - very new, very accessible, incredible design, very spacious, easy to access on PT etc. Surrounded by so many restaurants / cafes / facilities. The older ones, like where Education is based, is hard to access on PT, limited facilities, older infrastructure and not design for co-working (poor acoustics, aesthetics, not great ventilation / natural light) and limited access to food / facilities around office if you do not drive. Dress code is smart casual, and relatively flexible as long as respectful. Cultural dress is accepted.

The locations are great. The parking is very expensive, esp. for a grad who has just moved to Canberra.
Graduate, Canberra
it's an old building, sometimes lift not working and need some maintenance.
Graduate, Canberra
The office space is good, no issues. Collaboration spaces are great. As a graduate it is challenging to be placed in a rotation nowhere near you home and then expected to commute. It added 1.5-2 hours to my work-day due to public transport travel as I could not afford the parking, and I live inner city. Location does not appear to be a consideration when graduates are placed in rotations.
