What are your thoughts on pay and bonuses at your company?
I'm happy with my pay, grads dont get bonuses
Graduate, Melbourne - 16 Sep 2024
Pay is reasonable, being a graduate
Graduate, Adelaide - 13 Sep 2024
We are a smaller company so our salary is probably on a lower scale compared to other companies but we get a lot of additional benefits that make up for it.
Graduate, Adelaide - 13 Sep 2024
Happy with compensation, comparable to other industry-average graduate salaries.
Graduate, Canberra - 12 Sep 2024
Alright pay.
Graduate, Melbourne - 12 Sep 2024
Graduate pay seems to be within the average range. No bonuses or promotion until I leave the graduate program. I do often feel like I'm working a lot for same pay as someone who doesn't do a lot. I understand that this is just temporary and will change once I leave the program.
Graduate, Brisbane - 12 Sep 2024
As a grad the pay is reasonable and I have no issues. Bonuses I haven't experienced yet so I can't comment.
Graduate, Newcastle - 12 Sep 2024
My pay is around the average for the industry. Bonuses are achievable for graduates which is great.
Graduate, Melbourne - 11 Sep 2024
Pay is slightly sub-par for a graduate. The average salary for a graduate engineer, compared to other companies within the market, are a lot higher than nova systems.
Graduate, Canberra - 11 Sep 2024
I am paid very well for the amount of responsibility that I have.
Graduate, Melbourne - 11 Sep 2024
No comment or experience on bonuses. Pay is good. Reasonably competitive.
Graduate, Newcastle - 06 Sep 2024
I think the Graduate Salary offered by Nova is very similar compared to the industry standard.
Graduate, Melbourne - 04 Sep 2024
No bonuses for grads. Pay at the company has gotten better after 18 months working here but could still be improved.
Graduate, Melbourne - 04 Sep 2024
Pay is ok, it's enough.
Graduate, Canberra - 03 Sep 2024
Graduate pay increases at a good rate ~10k increase per year. However, graduate program lasting 2 years is ~6months longer than it should, it is easy to get a ~25% pay increase if move to another company during the grad program. Have been told that graduates are eligible for bonuses, but I seriously doubt it. Also doubt many people work for a client would get a bonus as it is hard to see the good work they do. Seems that only internal employees/managers would get bonuses.
Graduate, Melbourne - 09 Nov 2023
For where Nova Systems fits in the world of engineering, consulting, and overheads, Nova pays well.
Graduate, Brisbane - 09 Nov 2023
Pay is reasonable. Bonuses don't appear to be achievable.
Graduate, Melbourne - 09 Nov 2023
Pay is quite low for the role and job title. we have been told there are bonuses, but we have also been told they are next to impossible to achieve whilst maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
I appreciate being able to be recognised and rewarded for going beyond your usual duties through giving out bonuses. However, i think this can result in some efforts being missed since the system could be subjective in some cases (taking a guess). Would be nice to be rewarded immediately for overtime through flex leave/toil. Since there is no immediate reward i'm often quite lazy and do not keep track of the overtime hours im spending on administrative work for being a Nova employee, administrative work for being a graduate engineer or work that im putting into studying the systems involved in my role. Instead, ill just mark the week as being a 40 hour week when it reality could be anywhere from 43 - 60 hours. Salary is less than i was hoping for and the reduction in PD budget can make it quite difficult to make a sustainable development plan for the year. Since we are on rotations I've been suggested to take multiple courses when joining a new team which can all be beneficial for my development in that space. But spending PD during one rotation will leave me with no PD on my next rotation since they have been six monthly.
Graduate, Adelaide - 08 Nov 2023
Pay is alright and matches what other companies offer to graduates.
