Salary at Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC)

The graduate pay is competitive, however there are no bonuses.

The pay at a graduate level is very good, especially for the hours.

Would be nice if there were bonuses at graduate level, but there are bonuses at the next level. Pay is average to above average for starting pay

It can be difficult to progress through ranks as quickly as I would like because you have to wait for a position to become available at the higher level, rather than being promoted on an ad hoc basis.

I think we're pretty lucky as I heard some companies only give their grads a 50-55k salary.

Considering there is a good work-life balance, salaries for junior staff are quite generous. Your pay may take a hit relative to the private sector once you progress to senior levels, but the hours remain very manageable.

Very attractive at a graduate level and room to improve quickly

The pay for only having a couple of years of industry experiences is higher than most.

Time-in-lieu (or 'flex-time').

15.4% superannuation contribution on top of the annual salary.

As a government body, we do have a pretty high superannuation rate at 15.4% whereas most private sectors will have 9.5%. Additionally, if you're in IT, you might get the opportunity to fly interstate to our other offices in Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane etc to help with devices.

No real perks except knowing you are working for the public/a good cause.

NAIDOC Week leave, volunteer leave, etc
