Pros

The MBM culture Koch is implementing is a really good way to run a business. GP and Koch invest in talent and provide opportunities to those who seek them out.

Cons

At mills, it is really hard to embody MBM. There is a pretty big disconnect between corporate and the mills. The company values people who are willing to move. If you aren't willing to move anywhere anytime, you are seen as a bit less valuable.

Pros

Talented and hardworking electricians, operators, mechanics, and plant personnel. Interesting automation and controls work with opportunities to solve challenging technical problems. Significant autonomy at the local level when responding to production issues. Good compensation and benefits. Corporate engineering resources are knowledgeable and generally willing to help.

Cons

Expectations and priorities frequently changed without corresponding adjustments to workload. Performance feedback lacked important operational context, such as competing priorities, project reassignment, and resource constraints. Communication tended to favor frequent meetings over clear written expectations. Accommodation requests and communication support were difficult to navigate and lacked a clear process. Single-engineer staffing model creates a challenging environment for vacations, medical appointments, training, and long-term sustainability. Heavy emphasis on immediate deliverables can make long-term engineering work and root-cause analysis difficult.
