Pros

Open communication, focus on employee development and a pretty agile organisation considering its size. A leader in the business the image of the company was drastically refreshed while I was there (1995-2008).

Cons

It's a declining industry sector in North America and apparently they will go under a lot of change in the near future. The rirement of the 10+ year CEO, R. Royer could creat some anxiety in middle management and could result in many departures.

Pros

Challenge of doing something with nothing. The company gives you lots of rope but you can quickly hang yourself with that samer rope.

Cons

Long, long hours of work expected due to vacancies in organization. Remaining few are expected to pick up the slack. Slow to respond to Job vacancies. General state of the forest industry is partially to blame for situation here.
