This site has potential, but poor leadership keeps it from ever reaching it. Equipment and systems are in rough shape, and maintenance is handled reactively instead of with any real planning. Communication across departments is inconsistent, which leads to confusion, downtime, and preventable problems.

The maintenance management team, in particular, struggles with direction. Priorities shift constantly, and it often feels like decisions are made without understanding the actual conditions in the field. As a result, the people doing the work are left to improvise and keep things running the best they can.

The overall culture lacks support from the top. It’s difficult to feel valued when management focuses more on appearances than genuine improvement. That said, the hourly employees are hardworking and dependable — they take pride in their work and look out for each other, even when leadership doesn’t.

If you’re considering this place, know what you’re walking into: long hours, poor communication, and leadership that talks about progress but rarely follows through.

It's never boring, there is always something to do however, they will make you wear multiple hats. Don't let them know you're capable, because they will over work you with no extra compensation. Management is terrible and does not lead. Preventable mishaps and poor planning is what Origin does best. The mill runs correctly 45% of the time and the only perk is the health insurance and the location.

Origin Mine is a great place to start a career in mining or to continue growing one. There are multiple opportunities for advancement regardless of the department you’re assigned to. Pay is competitive for the area, and the commute from town to site is about 25 minutes. Benefits are fully paid and well-rounded. Most of the management team is easy to work with, and the site has a strong safety culture, with over 3,000 days without a lost-time incident.

Expect to carry twice the job responsibility without pay, title, or recognition. Another review said it perfectly but if you excel at your work, you’ll only get more dumped on you. If you’re lazy and sit back, they’ll hold your hand.

High expectations but great overall employee benefits. Lots to learn but they provide on the job training. 
Benefits and time off are best I have had.
HR is always helpful when I have questions or concerns.

Agile company that provides a lot of opportunities for growth.  Great workplace culture.  Large scale operation with a small company feel.  Great location for a mining operation.

The culture is great the atmosphere is great, they are willing to train people in positions they have never worked in before. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and be willing to learn.

Working here has given me the ability to learn about different aspects of the copper mine and the safety within. There are opportunities for growth. A great place to work. 

This is going to be a the a great place to make a career. The benefits are great for you and your family. Lots of opportunities to advance at the company.
