Pros

I would not recommend Kennecott to anyone looking for stability or a workplace that genuinely values its people or fair employment practice.

Cons

Poor leadership communication, lack of transparency, little regard for employee well-being. People are not just costs on a balance sheet, they are the foundation of the company’s success.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
