A work in progress, but lots of opportunity - Manager SWM International Employee Review

Pros

There are a lot of great people here. And SWM is growing exponentially. There are some pain points, but that would be with any company growing at such a rapid pace. You can come in, make your mark and see the value you add from day one. It's an exciting time to join, if you are up for the challenge.

Cons

The systems don't talk to each other very well, which can make for manual pulls for information and reporting. I know there is a project team working to correct this issue, but it can be frustrating in the meantime. SWM is a lean organization from a resource standpoint, but there is a lot of hiring going on to help.

Pros

I have worked for much smaller and much larger cos. It is rare to find a co as diversified as SWM that delivers double digit growth in nearly every segment. Usually, there is some part of a business that is highly under-performing and being carried by other parts of the business - this is not the case at SWM. Another positive is the global nature of the business - many cross training opportunities as an employee to move from one business to the next or one function to another. Lastly, as SWM has acquired several different businesses into the portfolio, there is plenty of opportunity for employees to shine and help further integrate and align these businesses.

Cons

The downside of many acquisitions is that not everything is fully integrated and it's not always easy to find and synthesize data. If you aren't willing to do real work, this is not the place for you.
