Career Prospects at Santos

Although i feel its communicated that there are opportunities available, i'm personally unclear on the specific steps of how to being building the skills beyond attending learning courses and notifying your team leader. this is due to my own inexperience however. i don't feel i can accurately reflect how well the company does in this aspect.

It is not specially outlined which is terrible. they are very much unclear on what our career growth prospects looks like

Unsure what the mechanism is for promotion. good and hard workers are undervalued. the company appears to actively try to keep salaries low in an attempt to reduce costs.

Moving up the ranks or be successful in santos from the outside appears that you need to be favoured by a manager and it is not always related to work ethic and production. unless you are willing to take an undesirable role it is difficult to receive the deserved recognition of your capabilities and performance. it almost always necessitates agitation from an external; job offering and/or an internal move taking the productive and skilled employee from the team they are in to a new one, wasting the knowledge they have acquired to the detriment of their previous team.

I have been given a lot of support to pursue roles and fill-in opportunities within the company. people with a good attitude are encouraged heavily. ability to move around between roles or leadership is very easy.

I am satisfied with the career progression available however the pay scale increases does not satisfy my desire. the cost cutting processes which santos undergoes is at the expense of the employee and therefore, the retention of staff will eventually bite them in the ass.

Pretty good for the graduate rotations.

Difficult to see a lot of career progression without moving around companies

Being a large company that doesn't have many boundaries for changing teams the opportunities are seemingly endless.

As a graduate you are required to rotate into different teams over the three year graduate program but the rotations do not always match up with yearly performance reviews. if you rotate into a new team just before your yearly performance review the work you completed in your previous team may be over looked.

The promotion process is not widely shared and it can be different to find out relevant information.

I have no idea what happens when i finish the graduate program and what happens to my pay.

Have not been provided much information regarding progression, but there seems to be decent opportunity to move up the ranks

There is good opportunity within the company but it is much better to try and move to another company to get a decent pay rise.

Lack of clarity/transparency on future opportunities and next steps upon completion of the grad program, prospective future salary range, etc.

3 years as grad senior once rpeq from there, not overly clear how to progress. also minimal transparency on job grades, pay bands, etc.

Promotions seems to be merit based, but not something i have direct experience with yet. lots of cases of engineers recently off the grad program being given roles with high levels of responsibility.

There are many opportunities to take on new roles. there is a fairly clear career progression framework for engineers.

There's no clear promotion or career progression opportunities that are expressed to graduates. roll of roles aren't clearly defined and there seems to be a clear lack of connection between the graduate support hr department, and the other departments graduates work in.

Currently on structured graduate program; comprises 3 x 1y rotations across the business, however, maintain my technical status/discipline realm. in terms of promotion opportunities or moving up ranks post-graduate program, may be facilitated by identifying and expressing interest in available/potential opportunities, demonstrating proactiveness and interesting in the company.
