Working Hours at Schneider Electric Australia & New Zealand

I believe that as a grad, I am always trying to present myself as a hard worker. I am still trying to learn to be flexible with my hours, especially if there are early / late night calls with colleagues across the ocean. However, I am very satisfied that we get to work from home on some days and go into the office on others. As on some days, my social battery may not be where I want it to be, I would prefer to just work from home.

Very flexible. I am able to adjust my day if other tasks come up outside of work. I can also work more and then have a day off if needed.

The company is flexible about working hours but as a grad it is less flexible. There is too much work and I work over The required hours. It is expected to work over hours as management does the same

Completely flexible. It is up to you to motivate yourself and come into the office, there is no expectation. I choose when and how I work.

My work hours are typically from 8:30am - 4:30pm, as this works best with traffic when commuting to work. There has never been any direct instruction that these hours need to be the typical 9am-5pm, as personal circumstances occur naturally. SE is very flexible with hours, and are understanding if you need to pop out for a few hours and make up for it later. This applies for illnesses or doctors appointments also, as they trust you will put in the time to complete all your neccessary work. It is very rare you will have after hours meetings or be working late hours as a grad, which is good for maintaining work life balance.
