Pros

IP has numerous opportunities if you are willing to move and can adapt to living in smaller, rural locations. The Memphis headquarters provides a broad range of jobs and young professionals with drive will typically excel and be recognized. Compensation is above average for the industry.

Cons

Bureaucracy is still an issue, though it improved over the time I worked there. Career paths are relatively specific and those who do not get experience in manufacturing, may find it hard to advance to senior levels.

Pros

Used to be well respected in the area and stable. Decent severance.

Cons

No longer stable. Outsourced IT department in maintenance mode. Two consecutive years of major layoffs and countless plant closures. No advancement opportunities anymore.
