Pros

Benefits are good. That’s all.

Cons

Do not waste your time! You will be searching again within a year stuck with this resume killer dragging you down. Sappi is an archaic dinosaur rampant with sexism, racism and conservative 1950s thinking. This reputation is known in the Boston market and it will follow you if you try to leave. Few women in leadership and those who are just riding it out until retirement. Corporate is mostly older, conservative white men who lack innovation, care for employees and modern thinking.

Cons

-Cloquet mill is very disorganized and chaotic -Near constant reactive "firefighting" operations -Maintenance department is not treated as a partner, but rather as a servant -Training in maintenance is a joke
