Culture at Woodside Energy

People are great. Very professional work culture.

Work culture is good with supportive and helpful people around you

Not much socialising, but the team is nice and helpful

Very cooperative with a focus on collaboration Managers very open to flexible working and work-life balance Socialisation good, but very team-dependant

-Very flat organisational structure - leaders upto CEO-2 are very visible and approachable, without their own office -Leaders are very nurturing and aim to empower junior staff -Leaders seek out opportunities for their direct reports and genuinely care for their development -No appearance standards or norms imposed on junior staff (no issues with long hair, colour, piercings, etc), allowing younger staff to "bring their whole selves to work" -Very cool headed leaders - no chastising if deadline not met or mistakes made - people are always looking to be positive and productive, looking forward to solution forming rather than ruminating on mistakes made and losing their cool -Have found leaders to be ego-less, with opportunities for 2-way feedback and an ability/encouragement for juniors to speak up and challenge leaders -Out of hours culture is good. Have found knock offs to be good banter with still responsible/respectful behavior and an ability to have genuine conversations with graduates and leaders. Not over the top, and no one embarrassed walking into the office on Monday.

Leaders are accessible, approachable, and supportive. Leadership from the top down with a focus on maintaining company values.

Good social culture, especially in environment. Good team work and collaboration. However, there is a high performance culture which is not for everyone and often leads to higher workloads and burnout.

I would say the company culture is very supportive and heavily focus with team work. Everyone in the company is approachable including senior leaders and all have the best intentions to set you up for success.

My current team has great culture, although there has been teams I have been a part of in the past where things are not as transparent and there are certain 'cliques'

Very strong focus on inclusion and diversity with a number of employee networks available - everyone in these seems to have their hearts in the right place and it isn't Woodside just 'ticking a box'. The people care. However, the 'in-office' culture is very different to the on-site culture but there is a lot of effort being put into improving on-site culture. It all depends on the role you are doing unfortunately. Within teams and across the organisation everyone understands that we are here to deliver value to the business, and Digital/IT is a big way to help facilitate that. That doesn't mean there isn't bureaucracy though and some projects can take longer to deliver than necessary because of dependencies on other teams, prioritisation by the business etc. After hours socialising depends very much on the team you are in. The grads try and organise catchups with the cohorts every now and then but my experience in Digital has been very much 'go to work and then go home'. People are always welcoming for a coffee catchup during the day.

I have a great direct team I work with. Not all teams are like this. Sometime lack of respect for graduates. Graduate community is good.

Culture in the office is very professional. Teams are fostered to work collaboratively and cooperate.

The culture of people in my function is great, however morale can get very low with restructuring and redundancies and uncertainty

I would describe the company culture as high performing collaboration. We are one team as everyone works together too support each other and shares successes as well as failures.

Values in action culture. Respect, Integrity and Teamwork in all that we do inside and outside of work.
