very good in the early days (2005) gone down hill (2017)

Written by Fixed Plant Maintainer (Former Employee) from Brockman WA on 12 January 2019

I started in 2007 with RTIO, very good company, good training and exposure to various equipment, lots of training, supported the workers and family. Sadly by 2017 very different culture, just a number, management more concerned about KPI's and bonuses than the working conditions of its staff (look up Brockman2/Nammuldi LinkForce strike, same management - more... made its own people do the same for nearly 12 months) looking to reduce numbers of Rio staff on the tools, replacing then with contractors. Very high turnover of management (5 supervisors in 18 months, none with any practical experience) Hopeful ... - less

Proslots of training available

Consjust a number, no career progression

Worked here for 5 years

Written by Fixed Plant Process Technician - Marandoo Mine (Current Employee) from Western Australia on 29 November 2018

Not a bad place to work although the management needs to be changed, I would recommend working here as a fixed plant operator, it gives you the opportunity to learn every part of the process.

ProsLearn a lot on the job, small mine site, good camp, variety
