Pros

I enjoyed my time at Neenah and met some great people particularly in the Wisconsin work force. Compensation and benefits are very competitive, especially for people with a young family.

Cons

Constant employee turnover and much of that stems from the sporadic leadership coming from the Alpharetta corporate office. The CEO Schertell often appears aloof and detached from the core businesses and there is constant change in direction and frequent restructuring. Often feels like management is lost and grasping for answers. Very frustrating for people asked to implement the strategies and many leave.

Pros

The pay and benefits are very good for union and non-union alike. Health insurance starts on day one, and they have a plan for just about anyone. From a high deductible HSA plan to a 100% coverage with 0$ deductible plan. The atmosphere is laid back, and it really does take a lot to be fired. If you are ambitious and want to move up, they support you anyway they can. If you are happy being a machine operator, you will still have a fruitful career.

Cons

I don't think a 40 hour per week employee exists. If you work in the union, you find out on Thursday afternoon if you're working that weekend. In the finishing department they only have to give you off 3 days a month. In the retail department they don't have to give you off. If your partner calls in, you have to work a double shift if they can't find anyone to cover for you. If you work in the office, your schedule is fairly laid back, but for most people the workload keeps them busy. There is certainly a lot of money to be made in the company, but be prepared to work for it.
