Pluspunten

* Good remuneration packages. * Option of residential or FIFO at a number of locations. * If you are fortunate enough to have a good leader, they can assist in career progression. * Community involvement and support is strong in residential RTIO towns. * Good equipment provided from machinery to LV's, in new condition and well maintained. * Duty of care to safety is taken responsibly by majority of employees.

Minpunten

* During the boom, there was a rush to put 'bums on seats' as a result, a number of individuals that weren't fairly suited to the mining industry were employed in various roles. A number of these individuals have maintained employment within the company and gained promotions to level of decision makers, but are not necessarily competent or respected, this is creating disharmony in many areas throughout the business. * Nepotism & cronyism is rife throughout the business. * Training is not well executed and opportunities for training are poor. * Very, VERY poor support for employee's suffering with mental health issues, most colleagues that I am aware of, will not disclose mental health issues &/or use of anti-depressants/other medications, for fear they will be targeted or dismissed on ground of not being suitable for the role. * Left hand doesn't talk to the right, communication of interface operations is poor. * HR are difficult to contact, rarely respond and are strongly company biased. * When a leader targets an employee, there is no support provided to stop bullying/victimisation.

Benefits are fantastic, employee share program, inexpensive insurance options with generous HSA contributions ($3000 per year), ample opportunities for career growth for those willing to relocate (internationally sometimes)

Minpunten

Mining is cyclic, layoffs are always a looming threat, depending on role 50-60 hr work week is common

Pluspunten

Local environment is very friendly and laid back. Everyone is helpful. The benefit package is nice as well. We do get the option to purchase company shares, 100% company match up to 6% for 401k plus additional deposits.

Minpunten

Our company was recently purchased by Rio Tinto and their IT groups are very secular and specialized which makes it hard to communicate and get things resolved. I’ve also compared my salary to others with the same job title within manufacturing companies in my state and found my salary is way below the benchmark.
