Pros

Newmont prioritizes safety, community relations and integrity. They get involved in leading edge technology for the industry. Benefits are great with bonus, 401k, and pension, and the healthcare benefits are strong.

Cons

A little too much focus on “shiny new toy” - it’s all about implementing things fast and cheap, which means quality issues are just left as a burden for the business to figure out. We could be a lot more cost-effective if the business wasn’t constantly figuring out workarounds just to get their jobs done. IT projects are particularly bad for being all about system/technology and not inclusive of business process. Promotion opportunities are scarce - most people go elsewhere to get a job at the next level because Newmont hired senior positions externally. With resources fairly evenly split between northern and southern hemispheres, if you’re in a global role, plan on daily extended hours to work with people on the other side of the world.
