Pros

More jobs and more competition to pulp and paper industry in Canada Great place to learn to work hard and be frugal Opportunity to become a great company with the right components Opportunity to meet people from outside Canada

Cons

Majority of employees are from Asia, with no corporate experience in North America Unable/struggle to adapt to Western culture. It will take a long time apparently English communication is a very big issue/problem Working environment is unhealthy and working relationship becomes rather dysfunctional Need to assess each with competency instead of title or position Most Employees are stressed Almost everything is subjective and based on feeling Reactive; execute first and then think No employee appreciation
