What don't you like about working at Weyerhaeuser?

"The lack of input from my manager on current and planned changes caused me to have to rework portions of the package several times. I felt like I was too insulated from the scope changes that were made in the middle of the design process. They are using AutoCAD as a drawing system, but not taking advantage of the functions that are built in to AutCAD to coordinate the disciplines. Questions about the design standards were often responded to with That is a good question. not a clear answer that I could use."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I would suggest they embrace the power of the AutoCAD system to improve the quality of the stored information for each and every plant that they modify. That way one would not have to search through old drawings to find out if any information about the location or installation details could be found. I also think that they could do a better job of controlling changes to the scope of work. Several changes never made it through the release process but were part of the final design."
