Pros

The typical work schedule is pretty decent with a 12 hour work day and a 4 days on 3 days off, 3 days on 4 days off kind of schedule. It pays well (24$+) and if your a greenhorn and wanna get into mining this is an amazing and rather safe mine to start with.

Cons

Overtime can absolutely destroy you and your schedule so you might end up working 60 hour work weeks. Training is also a lil on the light side as it depends on whos training you and whether its the full time trainers or just a coworker.
