Pros

Pay is fair after you put the time in.

Cons

Extremely dangerous environment made worse by upper management not caring at all about the safety of its most active employees. Some employees get no breaks throughout their shift due to dangerously high inventory levels and poorly set up scheduling. Very little quality training due to a lack of care given to the billet yard. The employees do the best they can but upper management does not recognize this area as a place of high regard. As a manager once told me, “They don’t make the company money so they don’t matter.”

It was great until the new leadership took over

Pros

The workers are good people for the most part. Some of the leaders who have been around a long time are very good.

Cons

The culture has changed. It’s not the family friendly place they make it out to be. The new CEO and the new President are not like John A. Mellowes. He was the real deal. The other new executives are also just not to be trusted.

Pros

Great benefits, opportunities for advancement, and a solid culture that allows meaningful work to be done efficiently.

Cons

Can be very busy and hours can add up. They haven't acknowledged some more modern practices like more vacation or paternity leave beyond a few days yet. And politics exist in the management of some plants.
