Salary at Services Australia

Bonuses are not appropriate for this organisation Never ask about pay - whatever people receive, its never enough.

No bonuses but will great if there is. Pay still need to be balanced with other APS.

It is adequate for a graduate salary.

From my current understanding the pay is quite good, but I've heard its better in other government sectors. - Frankly for a graduate fresh out of university, being presented with opportunities like I have been, the pay becomes less of a worry, because you are already building rapport with staff and loyalty to the company.

No bonuses are available. Pay is below several departments and agencies (approximately at the median) which makes it difficult to retain skilled staff. The Agency needs to be more competitive regarding pay if it wishes to retain staff.

Bonuses don't seem to be a thing.

I would make more money in the private sector. No bonuses.

It is completely unacceptable to be paid at a lower level than colleagues performing the same work.

I think the SES and Chief Executive officer pay bands are a little ludicrous for public servants in general. I understand the need to pay competitive salaries but to think people who have direct lines of contact with customers are paid exponentially less than Cheif Executive Officers is similar to corporate practice. I believe the agency needs to work on making pay and working conditions better primarily for frontline and technical staff as they're the people who make everything work at the end of the day.

Should generally be higher but it is not poor.

I would like to be paid more. I will be next year by 25% which is something important to look forward to.

Pay rises are coming!!

Public services N/A on bonuses but the pay is fair.

I think I am fairly remunerated for the work that I do and I look forward to progressing at the end of the program. I hope the pay offer from the APSC increases but at the moment I am happy with what I am recieving.

The pay is ok but it is definitely less than the private sector.

As a graduate my pay is at the lower scale, however I am satisfied knowing that it will increase multiple times over the next year or two. I don't think we receive bonuses, but the pay increases according to CPI.

Bonuses? hahah Union is fighting for a decent payrise. Albo is being a stinge.

Pay needs to be higher. Bonuses do not exist

Pay is alright for now, more bonuses outside of increased super would be nice.

Decent salary at graduate level if you have done something higher than a Bachelor's degree

Think - appropriate government spending...... training, responsibility and opportunity are the perks here and the intrinsic reward of knowing you are being of service to the Australian public

Offers relocation assistance when commencing the grad program.

Superannuation is pretty good. Working from home flexibility is amazing, since I commute on the train and it takes over 2 hours each day. I can't think of any other examples currently, but I have not been with the company all that long to earn 'perks' so to speak.

Relocation fee was paid but there are no other perks.

We do get an above average amount of leave.

Able to take annual leave at half pay.

Flex hours of working

I have not been aware of any perks. Salary packaging options aren't even that good.

No idea. I have not seen any perks.

I am unaware of any perks

I had a good amount of extra pay while on a 10-week work trip recently.

Leave policies Travel allowances Plenty of others

As a remote worker, isolated from the rest of my team who are located in Canberra, I recently enjoyed flying to Canberra for a Graduate event (accommodation, flights, taxis, meals, all paid for), and took advantage of the chance to meet them all in person.

The general public service attitude towards work which means when you're done at 5 you're done for the day.

The whole of my transfer from where I lived to where I now work was fully paid for including car transfer and removalists.

Flex time is certainly a perk but I believe it is incumbent upon all entry level staff to not abuse this privilege and understand that the people who have served the agency for a many number of years should get precedence in being able to take this leave. The ability to choose my own schedule is a big reason why I think I will continue to work here as the growing need to work multiple jobs to make ends meet is becoming the norm

Public service: Absolutely no perks. Imagine what an outrage it would be if taxpayers were expected to fund tea and coffee in the Centrelink lunchroom! Where's Albo?

Superannuation, flexibility of working place

There is a government program with sony which offers discounts.

moving expenses if you are moving to another city
