Pros

Pay was better than most jobs in the area. As long as you did your job management left you alone and would work with you if you need a day off or something. Benefits weren't bad but also weren't the greatest.

Cons

Southern swing shift in the pulp mill, paper mill people worked 12 hrs shift 2 on 2 off, 3 on 3 off. Pay was below the industry standard. The smell from the mill would embed itself in your clothes.

Ahlstrom-Munksjö Response
5y
We appreciate you taking the time to send us feedback. It is always nice to hear the positive things our employees, past and present, think about life at Ahlstrom-Munksjö. You touched upon the Trust we have in our people and that is actually one of our six Culture Cornerstones. We hire the best talent and trust them to help us achieve success. We will certainly take your criticism on board too – unhappy employees and stress are things we take very seriously. It affects everything from the individual’s mental health to the individual’s (and even the team’s) performance. We are already looking at ways of reducing stress globally and we are investing heavily in our Leadership Development training to ensure our global leaders are able to support their teams as best they can. As of 2020, 82% of employees felt supported by their line manager – but we believe we can get this even higher.
