      Pros

      Good compensation and opportunity to move within the organization. If you find yourself working for a good leader it's great.

      Cons

      Many outsiders coming in from the consulting industry who struggle with dealing with unionized environments. Not understanding implications how changes will affect relationships. Very slow and boreoarctic to introduce change.

      Pros

      Vale is one of the biggest mining companies in Canada. I worked at the Port Colborne refinery; they are all nice people. As an intern, I expected to have received more guidance, but I guess the covid situation made things quite different for the management. Overall, Vale is a great place to gain mining experience and grow in your mining career

      Cons

      Questionable ethics in management. Lots of backscratching and back rubs. Pay is good but you need to "play" to move up. Lots do. You can still keep your nose clean and ignore the management cults, long lunches and business trips and collect your bonus and earn a good coin. The Brazilian bosses talk a good game about ethics but ignore the behaviour here in Sudbury.
