Pros

-Excellent work life balance. Bosses generally flexible with what you do and suggest. -Best in class HR policy - when they say they support internal mobility and higher learning, they meant it. -Good overall pay structure.

Cons

-Too shareholder centric which is understandable given they are listed across multiple stock exchanges. Despite having the best performance in over 140 years of operation, the bonus was a measly 2 months. -Tall hierarchy. Too much politics at all.

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
