Pros

International Paper has a strong rotation system for new hires out of college where they can move to different positions after 12-18 month rotations. It is a very secure job to have in Memphis. IP offers the standard package of Corporate Benefits. There are many places to move if you so desire to test/expand your skills in other fields.

Cons

The environment doesn't lend itself to having all employees feeling important. Though continuously ranked on Computer Worlds Best Places to Work in IT. Leadership at IP tends to take an 'if it ain't broke don't fix it' stance to innovation and development. As a result the IT environment is dull. Company bonuses are only given to upper management so non-management employees have NO incentive to actually care about the company, its profits, or its stance in the industry. IP has no culture and only senior management is excited about the company (see above)
