Pros

Salary + bonus, benefits, treat employees very well, flex work!, professional development opportunities are there, all you have to do is ask and they'll support it, very safety conscious

Cons

Open office plan is horribly counter productive. The company has existed a long time but is constantly "reorganizing" so its a very unstable job. To exist long term at BHP you had better be willing to relocate internationally. Mining sector seems the most stable. Lots of people placed in middle management that aren't cut out for it. You can't get promoted in your existing role based on performance anymore. You can only apply for a completely new job in order to advance.
