Pros

Not much besides the people where amazing and they will hire you will no previous experience in mining operations.

Cons

Pay was terrible. Not a whole lotta room for going up. In winter when the plant shuld be shut down they would rather run the chance of breaking everthing then to just shut down for a few hours/days making a new batch of bs that managment would never pitch in with. In all honesty you are better off flipping burgers then coming here.

Pros

The people I work with are absolutely great to be around. The management team works together and helps each other out. Communication within the team is direct and honest, if something needs to be said it gets said, and then we move on. Everyone works hard but we know how to have fun too. The company sponsors fun events and activities throughout the year for everyone to take part in. I really enjoy working here.

Cons

I wouldn't call this a con especially if you are willing to relocate, but most of the advancement opportunities beyond plant level management are primarily based out of Dallas.
