Work/life balance needs help

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Insurance was affordable and had good ceverage.

Cons

Work life balance was not a priority for management. Very little wiggle room allowed when kid was sick or couldn't go to daycare due to daycare closing for illness. I hear corporate was different than the mill but most upper level management did 60+ hours a week and that is what was expected. I was salaried employee and the pay was decent but I worked 50-55 hours every week and if I need to leave to do taxes or a quick doctor's appointment I had to burn vacation. When you work that much Monday through Friday you shouldn't be expected to take a half day due to a 2 hour appointment. They have no clue what flex time means.

Past potential going downhill

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunity for growth Competitive pay

Cons

Company is growing quickly without strengthening infrastructure. Roles are gaining responsibility without additional compensation or support. If growing within the company, expect to be offered pay that is much lower than what would be offered to an external candidate. Company is more focused on employee recruitment than retention. Additionally, supervisors were instructed to assign low annual reviews in order to reduce bonus payouts. The turnover is very high. Upper management has told employees that they expect workers who will prioritize work and make sacrifices in their personal lives for the job.
