Pros

Old and stable company that has very little interest in being first to market in any of their product catagories, however they are a recognized market leader.

Cons

The senior management group that I reported into at Georgia Pacific really does not value the knowledge and ideas from their managers that could raise the value proposition for further market growth.

Pros

Nice offices. Just about everyone gets a window office. Gym and restaurants onsite Almost complete independence. Very little micromanagement Great healthcare benefits. Good internal processes and accountability for those who dont pull their weight. Professional and respectful culture

Cons

Incentive compensation plan is a phantom program..completely discretionary. Vesting on 401k is 3 years. Politics are definitely a part of the program.

Pros

Learned a lot; got explosed to many new situations. Some divisions more progressive than other divisions. Company knows how to make money even in tough business climate.

Cons

Looks like reorganizations take place every 2 -3 years to constantly weed out "C-players" and try and fill them with "A-players".
