Working at WestRock

I stopped by their Bolingbrook location and their maintenance guy came up and was very rude and short with me like bothered him. I'm not a mind reader and to be that rude is ridiculous. If he was busy he should have stayed in the back but the fact he came up seemed like he wasn't that busy. That is not an employee that is respectful to vendors that stop in not every visit requires an appointment so e visits are short.

I think people need to be held accountable for how they represent the company they work.

It's good that they are diverse company and will hire anyone but they need to make sure they represent the companies culture

The people at first

They didn't help like they said they would, and like to talk behind your back

Culture, ability to work remotely

Currently using outdated systems but we are moving to new Supply planning tools.

Flexibility

The admin is concerned about having a position for employees during the slow business months.They encourage employees to work as many hours they can to help improve financial stability

Nepotism and cronyism is at a high risk level.

They provide entertainment and fellowship among all employees regardless level or position.

Running water Flush toilets Free ear protection

Pretty much everything. Winnipeg plant is a dumpster fire

Seeing the joy in management's faces come bonus time while I'm eating my bologna sandwich laced with ibuprofen to ease the pain I'm in making that bonus possible.

I work hard a lot but it’s a pretty chill job

People that always want me to do their work when I’m busy

My team members

Relaxed/Stable Environment

Lack of Diversity in Senior/Executive Level Management

Work Flexibility

I like the fact that I got along with all my coworkers, especially the ones on the contractor. Communication on our machine was hands down the best in the plant. We all looked out for one another. Pay was competitive, decent benefits, management was extremely knowledgeable, and people friendly.

Looking back i don't really have anything bad to say about the place.

I'd have to say communication between fellow coworkers and upper management

Benefits

Work conditions

There is nothing specific that I can think of but the health insurance is decent

Great coworkers

Production is considered much more important then logistics and shipping.

Free coffee

The pay, benefits, and my job in general

401k is matched up to 5% and get paid vacation

The people are very nice and welcoming.

The work is a little boring and slow

Free housing for interns

Continue to learn about the press. And working independently

Management was not trained to oversee operations and to communicate as that.

Night shift

their interest on the safety of employee and friendly work environment

the rotating shifts

Career advancement, ability to learn and initiate improvements on my own, the people and the culture
