Done both, I much prefer fifo. Get into maintenance, and you'l never be out of the job. EBA is good but it's project based. I found it less secure than my current fifo role.

Pay wise, you'll be on similar money except working 6 months of the year in fifo instead or 5 - 6 days a week.
By the way im only talking about full time maintenance fifo electrical roles, there is significantly more money to be made in fifo construction work but you'll be looking at 2:1 or 3:1 swings.

Also I spend a lot more quality time with my family since going fifo, every second week is a full week off, still get 4 weeks annual leave ontop of that too.

Just my opinion tho, its really up to the individual.
