      A once good company has lost its way

      Supervisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Free tissue, good benefits offered.

      Cons

      This once strong company has really drifted away from the solid basics. The local union leadership is toxic, and holds an unhealthy sway over management decisions. They are offering more money to leadership roles to come in and try to save a sinking ship, while hourly positions are mostly new, underpaid, underappreciated, and as a result - underperforming. They talk a lot about strong corporate values, but those in truth do not filter down to the facilities themselves. It's a desperately unhappy place.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent health care for medical, dental and vision.

      Cons

      Will only give raises based on what they think will keep you from leaving the company. No standard of living raises, most of the time you have to threaten to leave before they will give a raise.

      Poor leadership and "yes men" Middle Management

      Portfolio manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      GP as a whole is a good company, and well managed. GPR Trader position is good way to sell wastepaper before taking next step into Sales Manager position in domestic and international markets. Face-to-face customer visits are key in this business and the relationship building is key.

      Cons

      GPR (Harmon) does not follow Koch Guiding Principles or MBM. Subjective Variable Compensation plan; no logic or transparency to receive bonuses and commissions. Limited support from inside sales/export/customer service/order management/accounting/logistics and other capabilities. Middle management, don't have decision rights and will take orders in a "top-down" approach. Career discussions and salary reviews proved to be meaningless, as management did not want to promote from within.
