While there are many studies concerning different aspects of migrants’ occupational trajectories, little attention has been dedicated to migrants’ own views on career success. In this paper, drawing on qualitative interviews with Polish migrants, we aim to bridge this gap in migration studies by examining how the migrants themselves understand and experience the concept of career success. We also took into consideration factors contributing to migrants’ occupational success, with a particular focus on the role of migration in their occupational biographies. Our analysis shows that interviewees define success in terms of subjective and objective criteria, focusing on immaterial rewards. Most of the migrants who participated in the study were unsure if they had already achieved career success. Among those who did, internal factors connected with a person’s character were mostly pointed out as contributing to career success. Despite the fact that work was the primary motivation for migration for a significant part of our sample, the results of the migration on career and chances of achieving success were varied.

This article describes a part of the research project conducted from 2015 by the Sociology of Work Section of the Polish Sociological Association, entitled “Doyens of the Sociology of Work in Poland”. The paper explores the impact of gender on the professional careers of male and female representatives of this sub-discipline in Poland. The authors explore two questions: (1) Are female doyens of the sociology of work in Poland more interested in analysing women’s work? (2) Do the respondents’ biographical narratives indicate gender as a significant factor in shaping their professional and life experience? The analysis is based on the material from twelve in-depth interviews with leading researchers in the field of the sociology of work in Poland, and supplemented with the analysis of the content of their scholarly publications. Based on the feminist perspective, the authors argue that gender is a valid and a relevant factor in the case of the most prominent female representatives of this sub-discipline of sociology.

Artykuł pomyślany jest jako wycinkowa relacja z badania prowadzonego od 2015 roku przez Sekcję Pracy Polskiego Towarzystwa Socjologicznego pt. „Nestorzy socjologii pracy”. Niniejsze opracowanie dotyczy eksploracji wpływu płci na kariery zawodowe reprezentantów i reprezentantek rzeczonej subdyscypliny. Autorzy koncentrują się na dwóch pytaniach: 1) Czy wśród badanych „nestorów” socjologii pracy w Polsce można zauważyć większe zainteresowanie analizą pracy kobiet u osób reprezentujących tę płeć; oraz 2) Czy narracje respondentów wskazują na płeć jako znaczący i sugestywny czynnik kształtujący ich doświadczenia zawodowe i biograficzne? Prowadząc analizę, posłużono się materiałem z dwunastu wywiadów pogłębionych z czołowymi badaczami i badaczkami z obszaru socjologii pracy, uzupełnionych o publikacje naukowe badanych. Wychodząc z perspektywy feministycznej, autorzy argumentują, że także wśród najwybitniejszych przedstawicielek subdyscypliny można dostrzec wpływ czynnika, jakim jest płeć kulturowa.
