Pros

The people who do their best to keep this company going despite upper management's constant unethical gaming of the system for their own personal gain.

Cons

In the last five years the headcount and morale in this company has plummeted almost as far and as fast as the price of steel. The experienced managers were replaced with inexperienced (cheaper) ones and yard staff has been reduced to bare bones. Those remaining bear a heavier workload and most only take one or two days off at a time just to keep from losing their PTO. It's taking a toll on both the physical and mental health of many and we're about to lose some quality people who care about what they do, but can't take it anymore.

Pros

Fun place to work, for a while anyway. Pay was great, people were better. Enjoyed the customer interaction.

Cons

Price of scrap dropping caused everything to plummet. So many layoffs that it became a pretty depressing place to work. Lots of empty promises. So much money wasted on perks that they have to take money out of employees pockets.

Pros

Good pay but you bleed for it

Cons

Horrible management from the top down. Huge good ole boy network throughout the company in each region. Cut throat from top down. Money is king when times get tough your're out.
