Pros

Majority of people want to do the right thing. People generally treat each other with respect.

Cons

Business practices are behind the times. They were trying to catch up, but the severe downturn in housing starts caused massive layoffs and process improvement is suffering. Businesses (wood products, real estate, and cellulose fibers) are tied too much to housing, and their large holdings of timberlands will probably be spun off into a REIT. Will not be a good place to work for a few more years.

Pros

Good benefits and generous retirement.

Cons

Little to no training for the actual job, unorganized, outdated, and poorly written reference materials, and unprofessional senior staff that treated training opportunities as excuses to find fault
