I like thoughtful SF and didn't mind the slow pace, although my wife gave up on it.
The mining people and differences with management are spot-on (years in mining companies). The engineering manager with difficulty relating to family and labouring over public speaking was very plausible.
Sub-plot with autistic child was clichéd and where I started having doubts.
The ending contains some plain silly stuff which spoiled the entire show for me.
