      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Higher than average pay for a company operating in Utah. Great benefit package as well including a significant annual bonus. Hired into a good organization with great people on the team and managing the team.

      Cons

      Mining industry subject to commodity prices so when copper prices dropped the company started layoffs. Too many inexperienced mid-level managers trying to move up the ladder when there were a limited number of positions available; that were already filled with ladder climbers.

      Pros

      Advancement opportunities are great within the company. Training and emphasis on safety are top notch. Friendly coworkers make the hard work bearable.

      Cons

      Having to work the rotating shift, nights and weekends even on Holidays so that you don't get to spend time with family. Pay scale is all over the place, needs to be raised to help accommodate the workload.
