What’s it like working at Bechtel?
AI summary of recent reviews
Employees appreciate that safety is a top priority at Bechtel, with excellent pay rates, bonuses, and competitive wages. The supportive team environment is valued, with colleagues willing to teach and help one another. Camp facilities, accommodation, and meals are well-regarded, and the company provides top-quality equipment, tools, and training opportunities including paid certifications.
However, there are some potential challenges, such as the roster arrangements (21:7 and 28:7 schedules) which can impact family life and work/life balance. Some employees have noted that management experience and responsiveness to concerns could be improved. The working conditions, including heat and dust with early starts, and time-consuming permit processes taking up to two hours each morning, are also factors to consider.

Trade assistant SMP
Oct 2026Karratha WA 67142 to 3 years in the role, current employee
Solid project with good pay and safety culture for TA, tough roster but worth it for learning.
The good thingsThe good things:
Good pay rate + penalties, FIFO flights. Safety is number 1, good toolbox talks, PPE provided, good team - boiler and riggers teach me if you show effort. Big project Pluto Train 2, lots of overtime, reward for who done good and outstanding, bus transport, meals and camp provided . Opportunity to get tickets - working at heights, EWP, forklift refresher paid by company.
The challengesThe challenges:
Roster 21days on 7 off is hard in heat, 10 -12 hour days when supervisor needs in 45 degrees Karratha summer. Lots of waiting for permits - JHA and paperwork takes 2 hours morning and most of the time I am a Permit holder
Communication between day and night shift could be improved. Heat and dust, and travel to site bus early 5am. Some days labouring only, not much SMP if crane down.
