Recently i did an article on b&q, a U.K based home hardware supplier and this week it seems that another major player in the home hardware supply's game has also exposed a heap of data online, this time its over here in Australia and its Bunnings Group.

Bunnings in recent months has had a lot of media coverage with the sauce and sausage issue, however this issue is not about food its about information security and a staff portal for Bunnings managers to log Observations of other employees being exposed by bad development practices and lack of security on a HTTP server that ultimately ended up leaking a over 1,000 customers emails and source code for the observations portal.

Looking in to the overall reputation of Bunnings from a employees perspective we see that over on glassdoor and indeed.com it shows that over all staff love Bunnings but there does seem to be a trend with a fair few making comments about the management, one that stood out was that the "management is to focused on finding what you did wrong rather than what you did you right and rewarding you for good work", though the observations shown to CTRLBOX show that the Bunnings management more often than not are leaving very good observations about the work staff members do.
