Typical big corporation. Squeeze all you can from everyone concerned and don't pay too close attention to regulations. - Laborer Stella-Jones Employee Review

Pros

Very little chance of lay-offs or company closings. Good vacation policy. Overall likable middle management personell. Fairly up-to-date equipment to work with.

Cons

Pay is not competative with industry standards. Integrity is a foreign concept among those who make the decisions both legally and ethically. If there is a corner that can be cut they will cut it even at the cost of meeting federal requirements for retention. A few greedy execs are compromising the values of the company and the product itself.

Pros

Work hours are well balanced, and it is fairly stress free. Managers seem to care and they do not give you grief about taking time off, whether it is for vacation or not. Pay is comparable to other manufacturing, non-professional office type work. Steady work load with little down time.

Cons

I'm not able to speak for other positions, but for mine, I honestly don't have anything negative to say. I have worked for other employers in this area that were much worse to work for than Stella-Jones. I will say that the "corporate mind-set" does show up from time to time, and it can be frustrating, but that is pretty common this day and age, so it isn't really a Stella-Jones specific issue.
