      Pros

      the shifts four on four off

      Cons

      pay roll errors. bullying and they pick and choose who can abide by safety rules. Management lies to your face,less pay more expectations to job requirements than those been there 30 years for the new hires.They choose who gets trained on Adaptive work system rotates you to learn more equipment then takes AWAY your bid job pay for the duration it takes you to learn the new job!! How can you make a living with demoted pay anytime they choose. keeps the $$ in their pocket rather than let us advance and feel worthy. They keep the worst employees and harass the good ones to walk out or give occurrences to the good employees. 5 an you got 2 days without pay. 8 fired. no sick days .snakey to work for.As a senior employee I cringe with the seeing the new people treated this way

      Hello- this is Molly from GP. Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. I am concerned to hear that you feel safety and training is not consistent for everyone. I would encourage you to reach out to your local HR Manager or if you would prefer to remain anonymous, please use our employee Guideline (https://www.reportlineweb.com/Welcome.aspx?Client=georgiapacific). I will be sharing this with our leadership team as well. Thank you.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -They do the minimum to maintain a competitive position in the industry to attract new talent (good starting wage, average starting vacation, average benefits) -Good ability to move around and explore different roles and opportunities in the company (ie, offered a shift mill manager position w/ less than a year of experience) -Will hire readily if you co-oped with them -My mill does 9/80 schedules where you can take every other Friday off, if you've put in 80 hours in the previous 9 days

      Cons

      -Word of mouth says it's difficult to move up the company ladder if you are unwilling to switch mills or companies -Entry level pay is not adjusted for the location you are in. My starting offer would be the same at a mill in a lower cost of living area. -Not much is done to build employee relationships outside of work, especially noticed by the younger employees.
