ArcelorMittal reviews

ArcelorMittal USA is a very large company with many facilities worldwide. Some of those facilities are invested in (money and people wise) while others are left to deteriorate yet the deteriorating facilities are still expected to meet very difficult goals with nothing. Unless you work in Dofasco or Burns Harbor you won't move up because that is where all the big players are. Hard work doesn't get you anywhere in certain facilities it is overlooked. When valuable employees quit work load is expected to be 'absorbed'. In fact, people will end up doing multiple disciplines of work not even remotely related to there original job description without compensation. Rewards are only given to those who are friends with management or in the 'group'. High tensions between employees at times because so many people left and weren't replaced. Fire fighting is a way of life not engineering.

Too much democracy can lead to losing focus, and I feel sometimes things take longer than it should be. I gave 4 stars to Career Opportunities, because despite there is a lot of opportunities, keep in mind not all of them are for everybody. It all depends on what you do and how prepared you are. I gave 4 stars to Work/Life balance as well. Actually, we have flexible hours, but at the end of the day I work more than the regular 8 hours a day (or 40 hours a week). Management is pretty flexible when it comes to working hours and very respectful to my time and personal needs. But, you gotta love what you do, because it is very intense.
