Pros

Decent benefits, okay pay. Always busy. Plenty of opportunities to grow.

Cons

Supervisors are the punching bag for the mill, Union employees take out their frustrations on the supervisors, and management will not hesitate to let their supervisors be the fall guy or throw them under the bus. The core values of the company like Zero-Injuries and Integrity and Ethics are just buzzwords to management, and safety walk-throughs and engagements are just another metric to pad their performance reviews. More and more is piled onto supervisors who often end up doing two or three people's jobs and then some. HR will fail you and will eagerly take management's word in regards to your performance without asking questions.

Pros

Good pay. They feed you often.

Cons

Drama. Little to no supervision. Supervisor dating maintenance man. People come to work when they want to. They say safety is important, but you never see the safety guy on the floor. Supervisors can’t wait til 2pm everyday so they can leave.
