Most of the employees have been there for most of their adult lives...and it shows. Company culture is awkward and forced. So many head bosses, you do not know which person is in charge.

The worst part for me is the way they are not accommodating and welcoming to new employees. It is very hard to be accepting of others when everyone has worked there for 10 years. 

I know it sounds strange, and you would think that working somewhere for a long time is a good thing...but you know that ONE guy at your job that's been there forever, and he does nothing because he isn't going anywhere? That's this whole company.

It is a fast paced  work environment. I've learned a lot with regards to shipping and operations of the company. The management is fine, until the changing of personnel. It is given that when you work in the warehouse, you hear cursing and unpleasant language, but I just don't do the same.The hardest part is to learn the different types of lumber (i.e. treated, size and dimensions, etc.). I enjoyed  being there because of the knowledge I am learning. Time is short because of the demand of the job to be more flexible and quick.

A typical day at work would be data entry, coding invoices and completing cheque requests.

Everyday I learn something new. Right now, we are going paperless. Therefore, learning new programs and how to get work done efficiently with new short cuts.

My co-workers are amazing, they are like my second family. The hardest part about my job is having to cover people while they are away and not being fully trained as to what they do. The most enjoyble part is working with great people who support one an other.

days start with pulling orders for following day, and loading trucks for deliveries going out current day. Management is fair and willing to help you resolve issues if any complications arise while carrying out tasks to be completed. Co-workers are easy going and willing to help each other to increase efficiency. most enjoyable part of the job is to have the freedom to complete tasks with little supervision, i feel this reduces the stress of daily nuances.

Weston Forest is a good company to work for, minding the Operations Manager who is young and inexperienced and makes poor decisions for the company on a whole.  Executive level management are always willing to talk with employees to find a solution for your issues.

Great job, Great people.  Talked with management daily, a family run business that likes to bring everyone into the fold of the company.  Great benefits, end of year bonuses, scheduled outings with co-workers during business hours while getting paid still.  Really can't complain.

this is a good place to work for but no advancement opportunity
the people are great and friendly
you will be offloading trucks ,trains,and loading trucks and there is a mill as well and you have to deal with all the elements of nature
