Pros

Started as a Co-op and was very pleased at the flexibility GP allowed me with my schedule. I was allowed to make my own schedule while I finished my undergraduate degree and worked at the same time.

Cons

Not a lot of downsides working at Georgia-Pacific. The only thing I could mention is not being able to work more hours than offered.

Pros

MBM guidelines positive. Non bureaucratic environment. Great decision making framework allows for economically sound decision making. Since the company is not answerable to wall street, there is greater focus on long term value creation. Senior Management is very humble and 'down to earth'. Bonus is completely based on value creation and has no cap. Huge upside is possible if an employee creates commensurate value

Cons

Middle management has still not adopted MBM in its true sense. People have a tendency of misinterpretation and often misusing when they don’t completely understand. Makes for a somewhat confusing environment and value attribution

Pros

Very good employee perks and they also value their employees wich is very helpful. I have found that senior management was very educated and knowledgeable of how to run things.

Cons

the senior management is not that good as far as listening and understanding the employees concerns. They stood up for teh clients more instead of the workers
