Management at Optus

8.4 rating for Management, based on 52 reviews
How accessible are managers and do they make good mentors? You may want to address internal communication, performance feedback or praise and recognition.
My managers are very accessible and were vital to my learning journey when I first joined, basically giving me mini lectures on network architectures during their spare time, they were the ones who encourages me to start setting up meetings with anyone if I wanted to ask questions to get feedback and really gave me confidence in my work.

All of the managers I've had have been FANTASTIC. The first manager I had when I was first hired was the kindest, most considerate person. She took the time to develop me, often worked alongside me to solidify key skills and made sure to take opportunities to recognise a job well done and highlighted areas where I could improve. There was never an issue with me asking for too much support and she always had my best interests at heart. My current manager is exactly the same - we work in a very high paced environment but he always takes opportunities to coach and provide feedback, both documented and informal.

My manager and I meet up frequently to discuss everything from career opportunities to them helping me with complex situations I'm facing in my role. A lot of my feedback is face to face which is what I prefer as it allows it to be more of a discussion.

Managers are accessible and are great mentors. Even if they're not your manager they're always happy to chat

My direct line manager is very approachable and helpful, however sometimes hard to get a hold of due to their busy schedules. My team manager, who I approach more is very helpful and is an amazing mentor and provides great support.

My managers are pretty accessible and are good mentors. They are quite open to chat and are usually willing to step in and support if I need help. I usually have weekly/fortnightly 1-1 catchups with my managers.

Managers are too busy filling their calendars up with meetings to do their jobs

Some of my managers have been incredible, others have been less suitable - they are very intelligent but not good with people.

My immediate managers have been very open with me and supportive. We have regular catch-ups to discuss performance and they care about my wellbeing. They always make sure good work is recognised through various internal channels such as our recognition platform and emails. We also have team meetings where they ensure everyone is up to date with company wide changes.

This is a personal highlight of mine, although it is not the case all over the business.

My BU is great, however, i've heard it's not the same across the business. My Managers have been good in supporting my growth and development, becoming mentors through development conversations. They are open with communication and check-in regularly to ensure the team are on task, or if anyone needs support/have questions. Recognition can be formal or informal, with a 'thanks' going a long way.

I've lucked out with having two incredible managers so far. They've had a really great sense of personal interest in my career growth and have prioritised putting me on projects that 1. I want to do and 2. would activitely benefit me to learn from. Performance feedback has been regular, timely, and constructive.

Managers are really great and supportive. Very much a matter of chance though with what manager you get.

I have only had one manager so far, but I have been very impressed with him. He has been my best mentor and advocate through my journey so far and has given me the tools I need to succeed.

My manager is great and makes a great mentor. He has helped me a lot in this grad program and always hears me out regardless of how busy he is.
