Pros

Nice office environment. Most co-workers are friendly and hard-working. Higher ups know your name and what's going on down their line of responsibility. IT and HR departments are very responsive and seem to try their best to make things right for you.

Cons

As you would expect with a paper company, they are very behind the times when it comes to modern policies. No working from home. No wifi for employees, and internet use is heavily monitored. Music like Spotify, Pandora, etc. is blocked, so if you're doing something tedious, plan to find an old-school iPod or up your data plan. Vacation is non-negotiable. Most people are afraid of their managers, with good reason...they gossip behind our backs and take credit for our work, passing it off as their own, making the lower-level employees seem like they aren't contributing. Finally, the CEO seems to like to switch things up for no reason - she recently swapped two SVPs so they were covering each other's division. Everyone was very concerned about this.

Great job Temp Job

Pros

The hours are from 8:00am-5:00pm. The starting pay is $14/hr.There is no pressure to work weekends/overtime. You get holidays off, not only do you get off Thanksgiving and Christmas off but usually the whole office is scheduled off for a 3 day weekend since they know many people travel to see family. The atmosphere in the data quality department is very friendly. Everyone works together to help each other out on projects so learning is easy. Even if you aren't an Excel guru you will quickly pickup the skills you need to complete projects.

Cons

You need to go in with the mindset that you are here to be a temp. If you are with the right temp agency you will be eligible for holiday pay and benefits but you will need to invest time before you are eligible. Transitioning to a full time employee could take a few weeks or a few years. Full time positions do not open very often.
