If you’re a recent engineering or college graduate (Port Hudson) will not grow your engineering skills.
Examples include.
1. Not following company guidance or industry standards. Essentially this breaks down to engineers taking short cuts or asking engineering firms do the work. All real engineering is handled by outside firms. (Pro this makes for great experience managing others). What experience you do gain is non transferable unless you stay within the paper industry.
2. No stewardship of issues. MOC process is non existent
3. Planning of major events (Outages are poorly managed, no review or oversight, pre or post outage)
4. Undervalued based on other companies in the market. Go down river 10 miles and see 25% increase in pay
5. Employees are great but retention is an issue within itself. Less than 60% employee retention annually. Managers leave so frequently, direction changes every quarter.
