Pros

Safety and the well being of every employee is 1st priority have the network to get things done great work schedules, holiday comp, and other benefits the work and people make it an enjoyable place to be. we are Kennecott proud - we are a family

Cons

I HATED the Gate temp. checks for Covid... they were pointless based on the number of people who got through the gate then tested positive (we test every week, on site) - 100% of positive tests had normal temperature readings at the security gates!! - but they are gone now, yay!! thats it, I don't have any other issues with work. I LOVE MY JOB!

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

Pros

Local environment is very friendly and laid back. Everyone is helpful. The benefit package is nice as well. We do get the option to purchase company shares, 100% company match up to 6% for 401k plus additional deposits.

Cons

Our company was recently purchased by Rio Tinto and their IT groups are very secular and specialized which makes it hard to communicate and get things resolved. I’ve also compared my salary to others with the same job title within manufacturing companies in my state and found my salary is way below the benchmark.
