Sohar Aluminium is one of the good Smelter in GCC. Sohar aluminium provides a excellent platform to grow, I have been trained , learned and get expertise in new skill development and become expert in the field of Maintenance/ operation/ EHS/ Financial Management. I had a opportunity to serve in the local community and been recognized, Colleagues are combination of both, Locals are very ambitious . I had an opportunity to innovate many technical development. Rio Tinto support is excellent. In mid and high level politics are exist , Specially expats are sometimes exposed to that. Work environment is tough , in mid summer temperature reaches up to 60 degree Centigrade at shop floor, work culture also very tough need some time for the new comer. Always need to be work hard some times work life balance is compromised. Very strict discipline.

Dislikes

Not much work life balance and the environment. The most I disliked about the politics at the top and mid level management.
