Some Mills Much Better Than Others - Engineer International Paper Employee Review

Pros

Tex mill has a good market for the products it makes. Occasional market driven downtime but good solid future.

Cons

The Tex mill was built on the cheap and suffers from it. You can make butter with a toothpick, but its damn hard. Review system dictates lots of low performers even when you look at what they do and are impressed at what they do. So messed up. Raises are good for younger engineers, not so much for more experienced.

Pros

Used to be well respected in the area and stable. Decent severance.

Cons

No longer stable. Outsourced IT department in maintenance mode. Two consecutive years of major layoffs and countless plant closures. No advancement opportunities anymore.
