      Overall this company is built to last and designed to grow the company.

      Pros

      This company is a tight ship. No money is spent that doesn't need to be. During the economic downturn this company made quick nimble decisions that allowed the company to keep growing in spite of the ecnomic storm. I have a lot of respect for that. From an employees perspective it is somewhat militaristic in its management disciplines. I suppose that is just old school philisophy. Despite that, there are feedback loops for employees to give thier feedback about how to improve the company and I have myself seen the benefits of these ideas in motion. There does seems to be tolerance for work-life balance and valuation of family life, however I have also seen plenty of people work many hours past 40/week as well.

      Cons

      Decisions seem to be made primarily to grow the empire. All decisions stem from that perspective. As well, certain parts of the company seem to operate in silos rather that collaborating cooperatively.

      Pros

      Small-company feel, large company resources. Very decentralized decision making in most cases, which is empowering to those outside of corporate headquarters.

      Cons

      Commodity industry has significant ups / downs. Will require relocation to rise through the operations management ranks due to large number of sites.

      Great ideas, lack of unified plan for execution

      Pros

      Outstanding people here. Of all the place I have worked, this is definitely the best as far as the caliber of people and camaraderie. Flexible scheduling, interesting industry, environmentally conscious, good benefits.

      Cons

      The company wants to move forward and implement continuous improvement practices and to become more "lean" oriented. Unfortunately there is a complete lack of cohesiveness is their approach. The idea is there but there is no uniformity in approach. People, data, ideas and technology are scattered all across the country with no teamwork or shared initiative. Multiple layoffs this year as the metals industry has crashed.
