      Pros

      Pay check and co-worker is now my supervisor. Process of elimination worked well for me, not so much for the Fab 5 Managers that got the Axe in Dec. New employees have no clue about historical rolling lay-offs.

      Cons

      Company has been in decline for several years, numerous changes at top level of management ..Many of them fled to Nucor, US Steel , Commerical metals... Rolling lay-offs and outsourcing rampant. Terrible front- line Shared Service management ....

      Pros

      The benefit package is comparable to other steel companies.

      Cons

      I was supposedly hired as a mechanical engineer but I am spending all of my time doing silly business system initiatives. There is no end to the different programs that have absolutely nothing to do with running steel. Good engineers rarely make it for two years and people who can't do anything useful jump on board with both feet.

      Pros

      Hard working people that do not know better. Average pay. If you do what you are told you can keep your job. If someone wakes up an really looks at what goes on they may have a chance. The best thing that could happen is a buy out.

      Cons

      Top mangers do not know anything about the industry. The are all connected as friends and of the family or puppets. I have never seen a stock drop so consistently and so much money wasted on crap. Middle managers are holding on by a thread. Employees are held responsible for all the local manager's mistakes. HR Department a mess.
