Many square pegs trying to fit into round holes

Pros

Job stability. The manufacturing facilities are profiting well, and the salaried workforce is run so thin, it's almost impossible to get fired. Very fine people working in GP. Very easy to get involved in a meaningful way.

Cons

Very political organization. Kock brought in MBM and there are many of the old-GP attitudes still prevailing. Upper management constantly preaches spreading MBM. All they want is for the ground level salaried workforce to do MBM for them so they don't have to worry about it. Compensation below average. Raises are few and far between.

Pros

The co-workers, when the workplace is positively co-ordinated. When, the true objective of providing a great services and products to your internal and external customers. It's GREAT.

Cons

The need for modern up to date technology and equipment for their employee to perform job task. Need for true productive support.

Pros

A true family, many people have had other generations work there and consider it an honor to be there. Koch Industries have help with some inefficiencies and are looking to always improve providing new opportunities. Southern Hospitality from the day I started through the day I left.

Cons

Still a paper company so other roles have little turnover.
