Pros

Well known employeer in the Fox valley - great to have on your resume when looking for other jobs. Lots variety in jobs within the company. Exposure to global business. Generally a friendly cooperative environment.

Cons

Questionable management strategies in the last few years. Like announcing 18 months out a 50% layoff in the IT department and expecting that any good talent will stick around. Then trying to replace people with outsourcing and expecting that things will be business as usual (because people are like Legos, just swap them around as needed – that always works!).

Pros

Great compensation package and benefits with a great work environment. Very friendly management and relaxed atmosphere. The opportunities for advancement are plentiful and the compensation, to a larger extent than other places, is merit based. Your goals and assignments are very clearly delineated and management expectations are usually very clear and achievable with hard work.

Cons

A lot of relocation if you want to move up in the company. some of the mill locations are in the middle of nowhere and are not very desirable. The company doesn't bring in a lot of outsiders so there is not as much innovation as there could be and new ideas are hard to get out there.

Pros

Great place to work for young employees hoping to create a future career for themselves. They have a great program for Co-ops and interns if you like to stay involved with your co-workers and community. Also, there is a great health facility, and there are always sports competitions to compete in each season.

Cons

Large company, very spread out in the United States and globally.
