Pros
It's difficult to find positive things to say about Cascades if you're a US based employee. The company just recently announced that many positions would be transferred to Canada at the expense of US workers. Career opportunities are also greatly diminished as a result of these changes.
Cons
Cascades used to be a great place to work for but the last couple of years have been very difficult and demotivating. The company is trying to transform itself from a decentralized model to a centralized one by pushing shared services and moving the decision making all back to Canada. You could argue that this makes financial sense but the senior management just does not have what it takes to execute such a major transformation.
