Culture at BHP

Great culture both at work and outside of work. Very friendly, welcoming people.

The culture is dependent on the team and shift that you are on. I have found people generally very helpful and supportive.

The company has a good culture with team members being very supportive.

Love the culture, the people are amazing here

Great, everyone is really friendly and social. Us graduates even catch up outside of work

Culture to encourage training and development of staff is wonderful. Socialising amongst colleagues is dependent on individual team culture but mostly encouraged.

Culture is good within the Perth office. Everyone is friendly. Only issue is not many people come into office. Even with people in office not much interaction with people of other floors unless you set up something explicitly to see them.

In office hours - openness and approachable to ask anybody for advice or support, generally very inclusive Out of office hours - don't promote working long hours and interested in people's life outside of work

The culture is very inclusive within all the teams I have seen. There is a clear structure within the teams with good cooperation and socializing both in and outside the office.

The culture is quite very accommodating for personal circumstances and to learn. The team I work with has very good communication with enables good work culture and high performance

Really great culture. Colleagues on my site are down to earth and willing to help one another out. Do have a structured org chart, but leaders treat everyone as equal. Socialise at work with casual chats, but socialising does not occur out of work.

Good culture in terms of safety, team work, socializing, etc. There is a fairly strong hierarchy though as well as separation between work groups.

Depends on team, but currently fantastic. Lots of socializing between teams after hours.

Very inclusive and positive culture from the top down

Very long hours which go beyond rostered times (averaging 13h shifts on a 10h roster), and the work doesn't stop when you leave site. Due to it being a 24/7 operation, you end up being on-call at all times, regardless of whether you are meant to be working or not. The people are great to work with and helps out when they can. Lots of social events within the team which leads to a very friendly atmosphere.

I work site-based, there is typically a social sport/event run most nights at camp for anyone interested (not graduate exclusive). In addition to this, we as graduates typically arrange weekend social events once a month.

Work/life balance is quite poor - a lot of people working longer hours than contracted and working through or not taking lunch breaks. The vocabulary around mental health, inclusion and diversity is improving, but still has a way to go. People are all very work focused and driven, making it hard to discuss non-work subjects outside of work. In the workplace however, this means that colleagues are very helpful for work related activities/tasks.

After hours very minimal and not very existent. During office hours the Brisbane office in particular isn't very lively.

I'd prefer to spend time alone than with people within the company.

Culture is poor in my office/department a lot of office politics have to be navigated around to do my job. I find my one up difficult to communicate with and have been singled out and treated unfairly in my opinion. When I reached out to my two up they just went back and told all this to my one up and this has made things worse.
