    What’s it like working at Bechtel?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees appreciate the top quality equipment and tools provided by Bechtel, as well as the professional and supportive colleagues they work with. The company maintains a strong safety focus across projects, and offers competitive salaries and bonuses. The camp facilities are well-regarded, and there are good career development opportunities with training programmes and new qualifications available.

    However, there are some potential challenges, such as the FIFO roster schedules (particularly 4:1 and 28:7) which can make maintaining family life and work-life balance difficult. Some employees have noted that supervision and management could benefit from additional experience in certain areas. Commuting arrangements and extended periods away from home are aspects of FIFO work that some employees find challenging.

    Get in and then Get out asap!
    The good thingsNothing enjoyable able working for Bechtel. Techs were mostly good guys.
    The challengesThe culture encouraged from management was meant to be eliminated from the Australian FIFO construction industry. From Workforce Services to Superintendents to Supervisors, they all participated in a terrible mindset to the employees. No one on the shop floor dared raise any issue due to employment security. Only the brave spoke up. Do not work here unless you're desperate for money or O&G experience.
