Pros

You will experience more in one year than you would in a whole career in many industries. The thing you see will leave a lasting impression, setting you up for many stories to share in training. Many nice people to work with. Safety performance better than the past.

Cons

Site management does not appear serious about safety. Employees are treated as commodities and aren't trusted to make final decisions. The message from one manager to another is inconsistent. Department supervision does not always follow through with the message of senior management. Corporate organization has too much control over what each site does. They send too many tasks to the sites, destracting them from their site initiatives. Union has too much power and indirectly and directly makes many decisions for management. Can't get any proactive projects completed due to "fire fighting" and rediculous red tape from union and micro managing.

Pros

Good Salary in an inexpensive area. Many opportunities for engineers. Company is going to be around for the forseeable future, and when times are good, employees recieve huge bonuses. Tuition Reimbursement available within six months on the job. If you leave within a year, you have to pay it back. If you leave within 2 years, you pay back 50%. If you stay for two years, you do not have to pay them back.

Cons

Not recommended if you are not interested in the manufacturing industry. A lot of bureaucracy, too many hands in the pot, too many different opinions. Can't transfer until you've been there at least two years. No desirable locations, except for the downtown Chicago office. Don't plan on being trained if you are hired in a recession. Opportunities for international travel never materialized.

Pros

Good experience for an intern. If you like steel, it's by far the best company in the steel industry to work for. They send all their new engineers overseas for a few weeks at a time if you desire to. From talking to full timers, their benefits for salaried workers seem comparable to any other Fortune 500, right around average.

Cons

Steel mills are dirty and dangerous, upper management is still unorganized from massive mergers. There is a lot of miscommunication still through the channels of management. They are, however, doing what they can to improve on it.
