Pros

Managers and the mill technicians make decent pay.

Cons

We used to have decent health insurance, but not anymore. Do not like the consumer driven health plan that has been forced on us. Our HR department is a joke. They never answer their phones, or email it seems. And in the past year our HR manager has hired two friends and a couple of nephews. They no longer seem to look at people already employed for promoting them to higher paying positions. It's discouraging for employees that have been there for years. And they never seem to follow through with things they say they are going to do. Top heavy in senior management. Some seem to rattle on with long winded speeches just to hear themselves talk.

Pros

Good people with great leadership at the top level. The people in C-suite care about what they are doing and where they want to go. Most of the people on the floor are amazing, work hard, and care deeply about what they do.

Cons

The top-level vision doesn't always translate down to the factory floor on a day-to-day basis.
