Great place to work. Challenges everyday
Back Tender (Former Employee) – Thorold, ON – 14 January 2018
Great to place to work and paid well with great pension and benefits. The employees had to work together to accomplish daily duties. It took awhile to move up in this company as it was a union position with seniority getting the move ups.

Enjoyable job
Environmental Technician (Former Employee) – Thorold, Ontario – 6 February 2014
A typical day at work was to focus and dedicate 100% to every task undertook. My co-workers and the management team each contributed in all aspects of learning new skills and assisted me in expanding my capabilities. The hardest part of my job was not knowing which of the variables were going to affect the process of my duties, as each day throughout the day we dealt with several variable circumstances. However, working as a team made each day more interesting and together we always succeeded. The most enjoyable part of my job was working with a great team of co-workers.
Pros
I worked with several good hardworking people.
Cons
The only cons I can think of is that the mill is shutting down.
