Career Prospects at BHP

There are many pathways to choose, however it is worth noting that in my case the graduate program appears designed to funnel us into specific areas

Promotional opportunities everywhere, you just need the experience and drive

Large company with opportunities available all the time and across the world

Not much clarity on how to be promoted within technology. Seems that a move to management is inevitable and those who prefer to develop technically first don't have much opportunity. Not many technology personnel who have been here long term in my field, hard to chart a career path with no examples of progression in my field.

Opportunities for leadership or to become highly skilled. It takes experience, actively participating in development plan, actively seeking new connections and opportunities

If it's part of your development plan and you work towards it is possible. It is important people within the company know what you do and have good connections.

It takes doing good work on all fronts

Career progression looks promising. Haven't received a promotion since being in the graduate program.

Very negative experience, graduates in all the other companies are allowed mobility even if they haven't completed the graduate program. The experience I have here in BHP is very limiting and controlled rather than pursuing business excellence. Frankly disappointing.

Regular salary review and opportunities based on experience.

At my current stage everything is great - lots of opportunities to step up and take on more responsibility. There is a bit of a ceiling that people hit a bit further up due to superintendents/managers getting comfortable, so people end up seeking opportunities externally because there are no positions available internally.

Due to the size of the company, and Australia being the company's primary location, there is a significant amount of promotion opportunities.

Can definitely see a development pathway towards career progression if I chose to pursue this.

So many different streams to take to get to the top and also lots of backing from leaders if you explain your intentions

Shortage of enviros. I'll probably be okay.

Superintendent pay and bonus would be good but it doesn't interest me otherwise

Hard work is recognised in the team

It is a very competitive and hot market now. Good time to get promotion.

Career progression opportunities are poor for males at our company. Progression is limited by quota.

Initiative and passion
