Like many businesses, in our past there were times when turnover rates at NLMK Indiana were high. This was influenced by many factors, including the economy and larger steel mills adding new employees. Today the landscape has changed. NLMK Indiana’s culture, being part of the larger NLMK Group, improved safety record and strong compensation benefits packages that compete with larger mills makes NLMK Indiana a desired place to work. Employee retention is very important to NLMK Indiana, and we see that many employees view working at NLMK Indiana not just as a job but as an employer where they can have a career.

Pros

Management team is highly adept at flexing to the ever changing environment. Great place to work. Most common statement we hear is that our employees feel like family.

Cons

The company continues to work on employee engagement. It takes a while to steer a large ship and as improvements are made, it feels like it takes too long to some.

Pros

I worked here for over 10 years as a salary employee and while no job is perfect, NLMK was pretty solid. It's the steel business so there are always ups and downs, but that also means that the pay is very competitive and the benefits are great. I think if you are considering a job, there are much worse places than NLMK to work.

Cons

The business model opens it up to tariff struggles and that can be worrisome. As a few other people mentioned, there is a lot of nepotism and that can be frustrating. Everybody has got their people right, and if you aren't one of them, its difficult to go anywhere. Also, many of the complaints on here reflect more on the union leadership than the actual management. The union leadership is less than stellar.

You’re right—steel can be a tough business with its ups and downs, but we’re proud that we continue to offer competitive pay, strong benefits, and a solid team that makes it all worthwhile.
