Minopex Reviews

 

Diverse work environment

Working for Minopex has been great for my development as an engineer and as a manager. Due to the nature of our business, maintaining and operating mineral processing plant for a varity mining companies in South Africa, I have acquired the skills necessary to deal with different engineering maintenance strategies and operating models. The most challenging part of my job is to be able to manage and merge my conpanies systems with that of your clients in order to ensure a safe and productive work place.

Pros: Multi skilled learning
Cons: Away from home

Hectic at first but it is worth being here

Very busy in the morning's with everyone wanting to do and finish with their assignments, it is like a family business we understand each other and am always willing to go extra mile to help everybody.I like the fact that the job keeps me on my feet and that fits my style of work. The worse case scenario is when someone want to put his or interest before the company's interest

Pros: Non
Cons: We do put in an extra working hours as to support maintenance crew and guys on breakdowns

EXCELLENT WORKING ENVIRONMENT

MY JOB IS VERY INTERESTING AND ENJOYABLE,BUT THE EARNINGS IS NOT THE WAY AS IN LINE TO WHAT I AM DOING.THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ME AND CO-WORKERS IS RIGHT BECAUSE I MAKE SURE THAT THEY SEE THE IMPORTANCE OF THE WORK OF INDIVIDUALS.I HAVE LEARNT TO THAT IN WHAT EVER YOU DO YOU MUST GIVE YOUR BEST CONCENTRATION.I ENJOY THE RELATIONSHIP OF MY CO-WORKERS AND THE RESPECT THEY SHOW IN MY WORK.THE MOST CHALLENGING IS WHEN THE IS MAINTENANCE AND IT IS DURING THE END OF THE MONTH,THE GUYS YOU WILL FIND THEM TIRED AND NOT HAVING PATIENCE WHEN LOOKING FOR SPARES.

Pros: GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR LEARNING
Cons: NO LONG HOURS

It's a very good learning curve and I have been exposed to new and many things,

It's a very good company to work for , very busy from the word go till knock off, start by issuing stock I.e Ppe, consumables and maintenance stock ,then help external customers, filling and create a daily report. It's like a family issue ,very related employees ,work as a team Mr expect each other. I have learned not to underestimate anyone and serve everybody equally. The most difficult part is to work for a client m you always have to be at you'd best and know what you do.

Pros: None
Cons: hors shift
