Pros

Rio is a good corporate citizen, locally and globally. They invest heavily on best practices and that makes for a well rounded employee.

Cons

There is no work life balance. Period. Expectations are un-realistic and local management is arrogant and has a bullying mentality, especially with the local mine, Kennecott Utah Copper. They treat their vendors and contractors like second class citizens.
