    Port Hedland WA 6721Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
    I had a great time there, albeit brief. Would go back...
    The good thingsGood site culture. Much respect from the Senior people in the business flows down to the employees
    The challengesSometimes there's not much room for nuance throughout the day. There's a difference between being highly driven and being obsessive about it.
