Pros

company is fairly big as it has been in the industry for quite a while. In addition, the pay is competitive when compared to other companies of equal size.

Cons

The management does not know what it is doing. When i was working there back in 2012, there was an explosion that blew off a part of the plant I was working in. It was kind of scary.

Pros

I always look forward to working at the CANFOR pulp mill maintenance turnarounds. I enjoy working with my co-workers, and supervisors. I am always eager on learning from working different jobs threw out the CANFOR pulp mill maintenance turnarounds. Safe working environment. I hope very much to be employed for CANFOR full time. CANFOR is where I want to have my career. Janice S.

Cons

I cannot think of any cons
