There is no "best part". There is a massive bullying culture there. Managers and team leaders yell at you and very poor management skills. HR do not care.

Working with managers who don’t know what they’re doing and love bullying you. They need new management, the dinosaurs working there are stuck in the 80s mentality work culture - where workers have no rights!

Toxic, a lot of bullying, racism, old managers who do not stick to James hardies alleged culture and policies.

Slavery. Dangerous. Unorganised.

Senior management has consistently funded technical innovation in order to develop competitive advantage, which is one reason that the company has been so successful.  

The company is great place for those who thrive on challenge, pressure and hard work - it is definitely not a place for those who want a quiet life!!

very busy and no breaks between meetings

I thoroughly enjoyed working for this company.

I was given the opportunity to learn many different skills and was afforded time to hone my skills in relief positions and was financially rewarded for my performance.

Co-workers were numerous and represented many cultures and nationalities.  Everyone friendly and easily accessible, even at management level.

My experience working at James Hardie was helpful to me, as I am not  English speaker native, I learnt from them the correct way to understand and speak. Also, they have strong policy and procedures to respect and work together as a family to reach the organization' objectives in different projects.

James hardie has a lot of bad culture with workplace bullying from the top end which filtered through there ranks /a dusty muddy work environment is constant with no regard for safety with little regard for there people

It's easy to make money & can get lots of opportunity for step up the job-title in James Hardie.
Most managers are very friendly also they offer to trainning systems for safety & health program.
