Pros

Decent hourly rate, thanks to the union who fights for wage increases every contract. Other than that, there are no other positives

Cons

Management is so far out of touch with basic/humanistic principles. The culture at GP is toxic. Company says one thing and does another and have done many unethical actions but yet corporate turns their head the other way. There are no employee bonuses. The company feels that your paycheck is enough. Management believes in production first, safety second even though they boast "safety comes first." If you ask management questions they are quick to act in shutting you down, they do not like to be challenged. If you tolerate being lied to, enjoy unethical behaviors and actions...then this is the place for you!

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. I am sorry you feel this way and am concerned to hear that you feel safety is second. I encourage you to contact me directly with more details at hrresponseteam@gapac.com . Or, if you would prefer to remain anonymous, please contact our Guideline (https://www.reportlineweb.com/Welcome.aspx?Client=georgiapacific) so we can take a closer look. I will be passing this feedback along to leadership as well. Thanks- Molly

Pros

Schedule, flexibility, pay, co- workers, relationships

Cons

No COLA, annual reviews pushed back, comp reviews consistently pushed back even further. Non value added meetings & ‘fluff’ with Koch book reading requirements (which directly conflict in the respect philosophy when it comes to comp reviews), no consistency in business units- ie. Moving from one to another group a vast difference in how they treat/respect employees
