Pros

Good and modern atmosphere and sometimes good food for affordable price

Cons

Office politics and mind games. They will never increase your salaries for any reason and never be transparent with it. UPM is not the same as it used to be under the new leadership. People are not satisfied to work here and many try to go for opportunities elsewhere.

Pros

Teams in North America are the hardest working individuals. They have incredible talent and are extremely supportive.

Cons

Every part of UPM is controlled and ran by management in Europe. This means that the teams in other regions are stifled, siloed, and become stagnant. This alienates innovation and process improvement, perpetuating an atmosphere where talent cannot be maintained or grow.
