Pros

The pay is pretty good when you add everything up. It's a big part of why anyone stays despite everything else. You can find some nice people to work and make good friends.

Cons

The previous comments on here are right -. Agnico has many problems with bullying, discrimination, favortism and bad leadership. They keep promoting people who shouldn't be in leadership positions. Senior management ignores the problems and some of them are the problem. There are many examples of poor leadership but it's impossible to rely on HR in those cases. HR has a reputation of having poor leadership and displaying behaviors that include burning out and bullying their own team members to the point that many have left. If that kind of leadership is tolerated in HR then how can you prevent other departments from doing the same? Agnico does a good job telling you how great they are but a really bad job living up to it when it comes to the work atmosphere and holding leaders accountable.

Pros

Good pay Nice CEO Accessible executives Good employee programs

Cons

Sexism - not a good place for women wanting to advance. Not supportive of women wanting to start a family. They get annoyed with maternity leaves. They visible treat men differently and with more respect and inclusivity. Racism - knowingly or not they make racist and insensitive comments often. Complaints don't get treated seriously and there are almost never any consequences for the offender. Bullying - too many leaders use this tactic and get away with it. emotionally unsafe environment. Micromanagement - leaders focus on controlling things that employes should be able to handle. You have to get too many people involved in projects and it slows the process too much wasting time and money Unclear expectations - hard to know what they want and they always keep changing Overwork/no life balance - jobs are overloaded on purpose and burn people out. Favoritism/nepotism - both exist all over the company and its to the disadvantage of so many good and smart people with no relation ties in the company. Out of touch- operating in really old ways of thinking and not open to change . Old technology and no vision for anything new or innovative
