Pros

SMCV pays very well and the benefits are comprehensive. Nevertheless the health insurance was poor since it works with only one clinic. the main facilities are close to the second biggest city in Peru around an hour by coach.

Cons

There is not a career ladder, HR managers are sort of paternalistic working not woth rewards but with punishment . commuting everyday to the mine site could be really uncomfortable. there is too much difference between upper management and middle management.

Pros

Good pay Good benefits Some opportunity to develop professional skills Good people working on the ground Great place to learn workplace politics and management dynamics If you like the mining industry this might be a good place for you

Cons

Locations are often remote and can include a lot of driving Schedules are very challenging Management can be overly political Make sure you go in with a degree that directly relates to your career goal because if you don't have one, you'll never get to where you want to go
