Pros

Great orebodies, good cost structures and very talented technical professionals Salaries and conditions are ok but when you recruit and develop the best you shouldn't pay at the 66th percentile

Cons

Poisonous culture fostered by political gaming The world under Sam was pretty tough but it was performance based. Under J-S it is malevolent and deeply political

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits packages

Cons

During down cycles there are mass layoffs and cutting of people in spite of the knowledge that when prices recover they will have to rehire those people and at a much higher salary.
