Vantaggi
Georgia Pacific is a great place to start a career. The focus on safety and environmental stewardship is second to none. There are outstanding opportunities to learn Charles Koch's MBM pholosophies on running a business and free market economics that will help through out ones life. Employees learn a lot about creating value for the company. This is the basis employment. You provide a service to the company and receive a paycheck in return.
Svantaggi
As market conditions change and you may find yourself in a facility, department or working a particular job that that suddenly has less economic value to the company. The job will be eliminated and the employee will be terminated with no opportunity to be employed by GP again. It doesn't matter if you you have 1 year of skill with the company or 30 years. Likewise, if you are injured outside of work you are considered a potential liability to the company and your employment will be terminated unless a physician certifies you as 100% recovered regardless of length of service, skills or performance.
