IGO Limited Reviews

IGO ensures graduates move between sites to gain exposure and actually help their workers to progress in their careers by assisting with future learning like MBAs and training courses.

Big focus on CSR, particularly on heritage/interaction with traditional owners, and opportunities to engage and volunteer with schools and programs in the communities we work in.

I have found it extremely easy to get along with coworkers during and after office hours. I have found it refreshing to be able to have conversions with almost anyone on site - from the GM to operators to camp staff. After work, my team usually gets dinner together, some people go to the gym together. As someone who moved from another state for my internship, even once the work week is over, my colleagues are still helpful and have offered me transport, recommendations for places to visit and have given me their contacts should I ever need help. At work, the teams work extremely well. It isn't a strict work environment which I think helps people relax and actually enjoy work.

The company has a clear commitment to diversity. The parental leave is extensive to allow for both partners to be able to take time away from work. There is also a strong focus on the recruitment and retention of women, ethnic minorities and the LGBTQIA+ community. The company also is a part of pride professionals which focuses on the support of employees apart of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Given a good mix of day to day jobs and longer term projects. Felt supported to ask for help but still given the freedom to learn for myself/not micromanaged.

Managers are very accessible and make exceptional mentors. Internal communication, performance feedback and recognition is approached professionally and consistently.

Facilities are very good for lifestyle and work. Site has multiple break rooms, bathrooms and large office spaces - easy to request new office equipment if needed. Lifestyle facilities include a gym, multiple laundries, wet mess, dry mess and tennis court. There's also a walking track and I believe there is a bike hire which is pretty cool

Assessment day was great - felt welcomed and well supported/not daunting. Online application process and aptitude quiz was straightforward and easy to navigate.

Overall, pay is good and bonuses can be generous.

Opportunities for informal training and in-house learning are good.

I work 8 days on, 6 days off. The days I work, I work 12 hour days. My work is reasonably flexible. It is really easy to take leave but since it is FIFO work, you do have to plan a bit. Starting and leaving work early is pretty easy, as long as you get your hours in.

A lot of effort goes into reducing environmental footprint through things like renewable energy, internal carbon pricing and electrification studies.
