no bonuses, pay is good but slightly below market
Graduate, Sydney - 10 Nov 2023
Very limited pay progression while you are a graduate. A lot of young professionals leave to similar companies and make much more.
Graduate, Perth - 10 Nov 2023
Consulting just doesn't pay as well as working for an operator, but whilst I really wanted to work at GHD for the projects and culture, when applying for grad positions, I did seriously consider taking a role in a company I was less excited about but who paid significantly more. GHD seems to be in the mid-range of consultants for grad positions at least, and did offer me a moving bonus which helped sell me as I appreciate both the financial bonus and the recognition that pay is important and we are not wrong to want to seek a good salary as well as an interesting role. I don't know much about pay after the grad program, or if GHD has any consistent bonuses for employees.

No bonuses so far but pay is okay
Graduate, Perth - 06 Nov 2023
Bonuses would be great, especially if deliverables exceeded expectations. A lot of overtime is often done to meet these.
Graduate, Sydney - 06 Nov 2023
The company is very fair in it's pay structure. Graduates are well paid comparative to other similar roles, however additional hours worked are not charged as over-time but rather time in lieu. This means no bonuses are offered.
Graduate, Sydney - 06 Nov 2023
We get a decent salary in the grand scheme of things but I feel it is on the low end of what engineers could expect. There are no bonuses that I'm aware of.
Graduate, Melbourne - 03 Nov 2023
Pay is low compared to other companies.
Graduate, Perth - 03 Nov 2023
Pay is average and would prefer it to be higher based off other salaries I have heard of from uni cohort. Companies values are good enough though that its a trade off. Havent heard about any bonuses.
Graduate, Newcastle - 02 Nov 2023
The bonuses for graduates should be relevant to perfomance
Graduate, Melbourne - 02 Nov 2023
While I am just a graduate, pay isn't extremely competitive and I think is one reason why a number of graduates leave after a couple of years. I think pay progression/bonuses could be more competitive if they hope to retain more graduates.
Graduate, Cairns - 02 Nov 2023
Although I have been happy with my pay so far, it is not remarkable by industry comparison in my opinion, and I expect appropriate increases as I move through my career and up the corporate ladder.
Graduate, Brisbane - 02 Nov 2023
I feel that the pay is at a good, competitive rate, especially for graduates coming straight out of uni. I don't know if there are bonuses at GHD.
Graduate, Sydney - 02 Nov 2023
The pay is pretty standard. No bonuses
Graduate, Brisbane - 02 Nov 2023
I think my pay is good for an entry level position. No bonuses really at GHD.
Graduate, Brisbane - 02 Nov 2023
I was not aware there is a bonus at GHD (at least at my level). I think the pay is quite low compared to industry ($83,000) for a Graduate Environmentalist. Due to inflation, I think the pay should be higher.
Graduate, Sydney - 02 Nov 2023
I am a literal scientist, (albeit a graduate), but I still struggle to feed my kids and pay my mortgage. That isn't so much a symptom of GHD underpaying it's staff and more a symptom of large corporations making big profit margins and huge mark-ups.
Graduate, Newcastle - 02 Nov 2023
I think the pay for the graduates is fair.
Although I think the graduates who go above and beyond to should be recognised more.
Graduate, Sydney - 02 Nov 2023
Pay seems on the lower side for industry
Graduate, Newcastle - 02 Nov 2023
There could be more benefits. Pay could be more competitive.
Benefits aren't made too clear.
