Brucejack Minesite in Northern BC

Pros

If you are unskilled, have no actual mining career experience, zero to little life experience, questionable integrity, even if your past employers describe you as an unproductive employee this will be no problem. If you are a 28 - 43 years old, you will be hired, probably promoted and you will fit in at Brucejack.

Cons

The Brucejack mine is a Canadian site once owned by Pretium Resources a Canadian company, then purchased by Newcrest Mining an Australian company and now its owned by Newmont which is an American company which has resulted in a place that is not for everyone. Its full of ageism and sexism and it lacks true inclusion and oddly its operational agenda is far left-wing woke at the same time. When discussed among the many people (workers and contractors) who have left for other opportunities, the common theme is that it was an unpleasant place and not the best Mine they have worked at. Brucejack mine and its continued force feeding of social propaganda that is disguised in operational policy is coupled with an active safety agenda that for the most part is also a CYB corporate façade. The associated optics and rigid agenda are far too much to digest for most, hence the most recent fatality at the Brucejack site in December of 2023. For those educated, seasoned, and mature professionals who know better and have honed their skills through years of healthy work experiences find the place to be a political abyss to wade thru. Let’s not forget the fact these same mature professionals own worldly life and career accolades that have earned them their spot in the work force and the right to express their professional opinions, unfortunately those professional shares are unwelcome at the Brucejack minesite. The present day Brucejack mine is a workplace that is nothing short of an operational daycare for our Millennial generation and the less than ambitious to flourish and flounder in. Brucejack management and its low caliber site HR department, continue to allow the club-med group to foster a culture where its "show and tell" everyday of how great they are, when the data and results show otherwise. The “Millies” leapfrog over each other with zero accountability netting no actual positive or productive results or care which in the long run makes the mine site a less than healthy work environment and far from feeling mentally or physically safe. Some take-away advice is that regardless of your education, professional skills or talents, if you are 55 + years old keep looking, nobody is encouraged to hire you anyway.
