Culture at The Department of Water and Environmental Regulation (DWER)

Culture in my team is supportive and professional. Officers frequently cooperate on incidents and get along well. However, I have heard other teams are very different.

I only have positives so far. Lots of opportunities to socialise and meet people are quite readily available. The Youth Outreach Understanding and Networking Group (YOUNG) has been awesome at providing opportunities for young professionals to meet and engage across the department areas.

Positive culture, social and supportive workplace

Supportive environment in the office and able to switch off at the end of the day. DWER supports work place health and well being.

There isn't much company culture afterhours however there is plenty within office hours. There is plenty of teamwork and cooperation within the department. There is plenty of support, development and everyone in the department is lovely. There is socialising groups within the department.

Everyone is willing to help and support. There is a great deal of internal and external socializing, including the social club.

In and out of the office: Vibrant, outgoing and highly experienced/skilled colleagues that are always willing to lend a hand when needed. Just great vibes all round!

Overall the culture is positive. People are open minded and kind, generally willing to support and are open to new ideas. i don't find the workplace to be very hierarchical largely due to the open plan set up which creates ease in interacting with people of all levels. I do find that most people generally interact with their own teams socially and there is a bit of disconnect between Joondalup and regional offices.
