Pros

Good benefits, decent pay, can get diverse experience working in the many different areas.

Cons

Laid off so many people that employees only have time to "put out fires" instead of completing preventive maintenance and improving plant operations. If you are not a chosen individual there is no room for advancement even if you receive good performance reviews every year by your direct bosses.

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
