"I believe in the company vision and standards. I have worked for GP for only 3 months. After they purchased our company, over a dozen of the highest ups came into our facility from every division, management, engineering, safety, environmental, IT, records management. Every person that came through believes in the principals of the Market Based Management that the company preaches and lives it too. The most inspiring thing that is oft repeated is that, if we feel they are wrong, challenge it."

"I've worked with Georgia Pacific for little over a year now. I enjoy working for them, but due to current family circumstances, we would like to move back closer to home. While working at Georgia Pacific I have learned more and more each day about automation and sharpened my electrical/mechanical troubleshooting skills. I enjoy the team I work with"

"I've worked for GP Madera for 2+ years and have had mixed experience. The company preaches that they are a principle based company but the local level management fails to live up the those values. Work/life balance is a struggle with 70+ hour workweeks being the norm."

"I enjoy the company quite a bit. They have an incredible amount of projects going on, they allow you a lot of freedom of choice on the projects you want to work on, and they have really great pay and benefits. The only downsides are that it involves quite a bit of travel, and their company philosophy and organization can change rapidly."

"This company values profit above all else, and is eliminating positions without compensating workers who take up additional responsibilities. They are letting equipment run to failure and putting unnecessary burdens on leaders and then holding them responsible despite letting them fail."

"Solid place to work, a lot of opportunities for those willing to put in the time. Work-life balance is definitely not “in balance”. Regularly work 60-70 hours a week as a salaried employee."
