Treated well. Benefits are good. Work with a good group of people, but too much fat at the top. Micro-managed. - Maintenance Rio Tinto Employee Review

Pros

The rotation of two and two is fantastic. The money is not bad too. Benefits and pension are good for a large family.

Cons

Micro managed. They tend to hire inexperienced people for upper management roles.They have very little experience in these particular roles and the rotation of this upper management is like a revolving door. No one stays too long in these roles long enough to make a difference, so staff loose interest in their grand ideas when they move into these positions. "Flavour of the month" is the best way to describe it.

Pros

Local environment is very friendly and laid back. Everyone is helpful. The benefit package is nice as well. We do get the option to purchase company shares, 100% company match up to 6% for 401k plus additional deposits.

Cons

Our company was recently purchased by Rio Tinto and their IT groups are very secular and specialized which makes it hard to communicate and get things resolved. I’ve also compared my salary to others with the same job title within manufacturing companies in my state and found my salary is way below the benchmark.
