CEMENTATION CANADA

Currently working for Cementation at Agnico-Eagle’s Hope Bay Gold mine.  This job site has a very good work place culture.  Overall very positive work force.  Camp accommodation is comfortable and clean considering it’s a remote location.  Food is above average quality with menu choices.  Cementation’s superintendents are friendly, and supportive.  Together with Agnico-Eagle’s senior management they promote a safety first atmosphere never putting production above safety.   Cementation’s remuneration is average in the industry prompting mild turnover with some looking for greener pastures.  Those that do stay, realize the value in the overall picture of a job site.  Job security is of question as of this review.  No clear picture as to the current Doris mine life.  Every rotation is a blessing.  In closing I would recommend Cementation as an employer.  They treat me well enough to stay.  

Micro management. 
Don't believe anything management tells you. 
High stress environment. 
Siloed departments. 
Employees cannot speak truthfully, fear of retribution very real and proven,
Witnessed may colleagues fired because of not saying what managers wanted to hear.
Stress-leave is common occurrence.
Seniority is meaningless.

My typical day depended on what part of the cycle our crew was on. I worked only nights and afternoon shift because that was drill blast shift, and mucking cycle. Changing bale for 3 bucket mucking system forces all crewmembers  to work as a cohesive unit. Follow the claim mans instructions while working on bench is extremely important and, under no circumstances be broken.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very fulfilling.  Provided with lots of opportunities to improve career.

A lot of rework because of poor planning and the old guys treat the young guys like they are idiots. Very stressful having to redo work over and over. I really hope it was just the one project that I had issues with because I’ve heard good things about their other projects .

10.5 hr shifts.   Co-workers and management were great for support in prioritizing work, encouraging team work and mental strength as a unit.  Good co-workers, very brother oriented.
