      Pros

      More jobs and more competition to pulp and paper industry in Canada Great place to learn to work hard and be frugal Opportunity to become a great company with the right components Opportunity to meet people from outside Canada

      Cons

      Majority of employees are from Asia, with no corporate experience in North America Unable/struggle to adapt to Western culture. It will take a long time apparently English communication is a very big issue/problem Working environment is unhealthy and working relationship becomes rather dysfunctional Need to assess each with competency instead of title or position Most Employees are stressed Almost everything is subjective and based on feeling Reactive; execute first and then think No employee appreciation

      Pros

      Great Opportunities, Salary and benefits.

      Cons

      Problems with the company culture and organization. Hard to get the things done and bad communication skills. No ergonomics respect ( they wont give you a mouse, you have to buy yours... No monitor and no keyboard). Your neck will cry in the end of the day.

      Good company to work for in certain departments

      Pros

      Pay and benefits are fair. Training and support is great. Overall, great company, just not the department I was in.

      Cons

      Manager and certain supervisors/team leads play favorites and was very obvious. Applying for job internally is not always acknowledged--don't even grant an interview. Hiring from within?? NOT!!! Too bad.
