Pros

Very good pay structure. Excellent focus on safety.

Cons

Does not embrace technology. Poor capital reinvestment. They run every business as if it is a paper plant. Most politically driven good ole' boy network I've ever been around.

Pros

Sonoco paper mills are small operations that allow you to get to know the entire process. Great experience for an engineer just starting out. They also invest in training for their employees.

Cons

The Sonoco organization, at both a mill and corporate level, appears to be very dysfunctional. In my experience, most of the management was very two-faced and creating a negative atmosphere. Also, their benefits and salary compensation are below par in comparison to other paper mills.
