Pros

Benefits offered to employees are one major perk of the company. The systems used are mature and well tested. Well resourced company. Supportive of FIFO and generally have good policies and procedures. Diversity targets are a focus.

Cons

Company wide there is a communication issue. Little gets passed down through the ranks during restructures or changes affecting the workforce. The company is moving towards a contractor workforce. Diversity targets are a focus. Little room for career progression in certain fields.
