Pros

Conditions, benefits, office space, company events, hybrid work, subsidized meals

Cons

General lack of structure, feedback, and organization. - No formal onboarding or training: No orientation, no documentation, no shadowing. I spent weeks waiting for basic systems access. - Unresponsive superior: My direct manager routinely ignored queries for a week or more before offering a one‑line answer (if I was lucky) and even acknowledged that he had not been present. - No defined objectives: No clear KPIs or project scope—expected to “figure it out” despite being new to the company’s processes.

Pros

+People are, by and large, good +Good product(s), company is generally steady/growing

Cons

-Everything else outside of people is beyond terrible at this place -Working environment is ok, but feels like something out of the 80s; generally quite traditional, 9-5 type place with relatively little flexibility outside of 2 days WFH -Processes are stuck back in the stone age; EXTREMELY manual and time consuming. Spend way too much time just putting together basic reports, spend little time analyzing or beyond that -Because of the above, expect your skills to atrophy; you learn VERY little new things that can help you grow in your career. If you're fine with that, perhaps this is the place for you. -While most people are good, some are terrible and will make your day-to-day working life miserable -Generally a place where careers go to "die" - a lot of lifers and/or low ambition type of folks here who have been doing things the "Kruger way" for so long they're probably not employable out in the real world

Pros

Good pay considering the economic situation. Not like the good old pulp and paper days but still very good. Challenging - you can learn something new everyday if you want to. Lots of possibilities to implicate yourself to find improvements to be made.

Cons

There was a lack of training in my beginning, i had to learn a lot on the spot. They are trying to improve this. Rotation shifts Day-Evening-Night, its 24/7 production so no way around this unless you get a job thats 9-5 weekly
