Pros

Fantastic people to work with. Sense of community and belonging. Benefits were awesome - subsidized health care, remote travel assistance and other. Affordable housing in town. Great holiday arrangement - very generous and needed with the distances for travel.

Cons

Senior Management reneging on deals, lack of training and nepotism. Lack of resources in the town. Expensive travelling to/from the area, and is disappointing that the company won't allow staff to pay/book for flights through them.

Pros

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)

Cons

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