Pros

The pay makes it a awesome job and only having to go to work 3 to 4 times a week makes it a fuel saver

Cons

No TRUE training it's the blind leading the blind and if the person dose not like you well you might fail and to try to find out your job descriptions you can't they hand you a paper that is spelled wrong and doesn't even cover any thing

Pros

Looking to grow, decent profit sharing, very open with Profit and loss on a monthly basis.

Cons

Be prepared to do more than you thought possible. The rule of the game at Cascades is get more out of management to reduce hourly costs all in the guise of culture. For example they run there plants 24hrs a day, but don’t believe in having shift supervision. There is little to no training or professional development, pay is low for industry standards, and senior management is so focused on profits NEEDED repairs and upgrades to equipment and buildings are often put off until a failure occurs.
