Rayonier Advanced Materials

The senior & level 1 management is what kills Rayonier. It’s got a great sense of family & camaraderie.  The pay is not terrible, but the raises are not good. Senior management either wants to contract everything out so there is very little room for advancements/department movement, or they are only concerned about shareholder returns. There’s a VAST difference in the quality of mid-managers, which makes things unfairly balanced. I wouldn’t suggest anyone making this company home & thinking you’ll stay for good.

Pros : You work with some great people, some of them are very dedicated and knowledgeable. The management is pretty accomodating for life events. A decent place if just starting work.

Cons : Nepotism seems to be pretty obvious and popular here. Pay is ok, could definitely be improved. Corporate seems to have their hands in things they should not and don't understand operations, they seem to keep pushing the company into more debt than they need to, and are now trying to save every dollar they can while in one of the years taking a split $15 million dollar bonus between themselves. The area is remote, so not a lot going on. 

Plantation mentality workforce.
Non Existent Union representation.
Horrible safety culture.
Seniority clique(s) run the show.
Chaotic work assignment, with total reactionary " supervisors " ( if you can call them that )...
No proactive planning or strategic work coordination. 



Good paying job. That’s the only good thing about it. If you start after January you’ll have to wait 2 years to get a full week vacation. Management is only worried about making their self look good and getting their yearly bonuses. You pay union fees but the union does not for you. The mill is falling apart so there’s numerous safety hazards. You’re working almost every holiday. You get one weekend off a month

Pay is well above area average, depending on department not a very stressful job. Have time to complete most tasks. No flexibility with work location (don't even ask to work from home for a day). Work feels stagnant if left in the same department for too long, but plenty of oppurtunity to go to different departments 

This was my first experience with an internship and it was a good one. My coworkers were very supportive and there was a good bond amongst the interns. They are very laid back about the work that interns do which can be a positive if you have a large project, but you need to be very proactive in asking for assignments to make sure that you get the most out of the internship. 

Rayonier environment was very positive and my peers were helpful and enthusiastic and great to work with. Executives were warm and encouraging. Some managers were helpful while others didn't provide much support to assist in getting issues resolved to allow you to get more done but overall a positive work experience.

I am very grateful to have worked with a great company like Rayonier. This was a great and rewarding  opportunity for me! I would definitely recommend others to this company. There are a lot of intelligent and outgoing individuals here that don't mind going that extra mile to assist.

I liked working for Rayonier. It's a really good company
 They do have good benefits, pay is good, flexible with hours, and everyone helps each other out
 They also have paid holidays and vacation time when you get all your hours in. It's face paced environment which make the days go by quickly. 


Hard work very demanding, individuals within this company have to be very detail, alert, have the desire to be a team player. Days and nights can be challenging rotating shift, long extended shift for coverage. Putting in hard work with this company can be rewarding but time from home can be sad.
