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.
The office space is very nice, very tidy with quite a lot of natural light. There is no formal dress code and most people dress on the casual end of business attire.

Good office space that is easily accessible by multiple modes of transport. lots of good cafes nearby, facilities are being upgraded to promote working culture but still provide everything you would need (would like more meeting rooms but that is being addressed). Dress code is professional but not too formal.

The office spaces are updated and modern and are hot-desk style, however sometimes can be difficult to find a desk. Facilities are convenient and fit for purpose. Dress code can range from anything between casual (jeans sometimes tracksuits) and very formal (suits and dresses). Dress code is very much a personal choice and not enforced.

Some days it is a challenge to find a computer that will work, other than that the office spaces are lovely to work in

The new ways of working office is very similar to university spaces, very collaborative and they've really thought out the way people use spaces. Smart casual dress code.

They are being renovated, at the moment they are middle of the park.

no strict dress code, the location is right near a bus station with plenty of rapid services. the office is a bit outdated and plans to move to a new site are underway but unclear. The main building is undergoing staged renovations to allow for more collaborative spaces (exciting and welcomed but a bit delayed to roll out)

Our agency is transitioning into a New Ways of Working (NWOW) model which has involved floor upgrades to existing buildings (in progress), and in the TGA's case we are about to move to a brand new building. NWOW involves brand new facilities, hot desking, lots of extra multi-purpose meeting rooms and other changes to meet the fact that we are increasingly working in flexible ways (i.e. some days working at home, some days in the office). The dress code varies depending on your work area, but for the most part people dress business or smart casual.

Main office in Woden is not in a desirable part of Canberra and is difficult to get to if you don't drive or don't want to pay for parking. Lots of people have allergies in the office. Dress code is business casual and inclusive of everyone.

Smart casual dress - pretty casual compared to other government orgs in Canberra like defence. Office chairs and equipment are a bit old - we all have laptops though to help working from home - they're doing "new ways of working" where they're refurbing all the floors (one at a time) so there is better equipment and spaces will be done in 2 years I think?

The location is a bit annoying to get to (I'd rather inner city) but it's not terrible either. Most of the offices at Woden are pretty old at the moment, however they are updating the office space floor by floor, and the new floors look really good. In a few years the office space will probably look very different. The dress code policy is really good, you can feel comfortable wearing gender non-conforming clothes and this is specifically laid out in company policy. There's not an expectation to dress very formal, just good enough for an office. We also have casual Fridays.

The office space is slightly outdated, however there is current work proceeding to modernise the building to flexible work practices. The office is located in a very accessible and trafficable area. The dress code is generally determined per team and is very flexible. A suit and tie/ professional dresses is uncommon.

I am on a specific level called New Ways of Working. The office is modern, light, bright and has many options of working spaces for individual and team needs. The dress code is more on the casual side, however you can wear whatever you like.
