Pros

Great co-workers and Managers promoted a very positive environment and culture

Not so great company culture as the recession impacted the company tremendously. A sense of distrust was also cultivated unfortunately.

Pros

Pay, benefits, "hands on" approach

Cons

Management doesn't like new ideas unless it is their own. Everyone is only looking out for themselves including higher management. No sense of team. People who show good work skills are overloaded with projects until they break while people with bad work skills have light loads and continue to get raises and promotions. No one is treated fairly. Corporate has a disconnect with the actual mill locations and only think in ideal situations when implementing new initiatives, when a steel mill is anything but ideal.

Pros

Good pay if you have a lot of experiene and if you know a lot of positions. Great benefits and a good yearly bonus check.

Cons

The Work Environment isnt the greatest. The shop is usually whatever temperature it is outside. A lot of physical labor but at least you get your excersice.
