Pros

Money good,good co workers, if everybody can click and have multiple talents when the knowledge is needed you don't get the deer in the headlight look from your boss who knows how to run his mouth to the wrong people

Cons

Area bosses are puppets and tell the big guy exactly what they want to hear. Too many contractors working in the mill when we are short in production and maintenance. Bosses get a bonus where in my mind 4 or 5 out of 70 deserve them. Production works 24/7 and bosses get mad when they have to make a trip in on a "day off" very few dedicated and caring salary people. 90+% live out of town and are not dedicated

Pros

Real good place to work. Salaries are competive. Work place environment is enjoyable. If half point was allowed I would have ranked 4.5

Cons

Many years after the merger, homogeneity between US and Canada is not there yet.

Not a whole lot of pros. The workers are great, management not so much...

Planning, lots of controlling managers that don't let you do the job you're qualified for
