Going down hill quickly

Pros

Pay is okay. Don't lay off employees. Benefits are okay. Free fruit in summer and bottled water year round. Don't have to work very hard but when you do it's terribly hot, nasty, and miserable.

Cons

Bonus was good at one time, don't have a bonus anymore. New owners are so hung up on safety reminds me of liberals it has gone overboard. Lots of morale issues 18 + year employees leaving. Building falling apart

Pros

Stable, and overall good environment to work in day-to-day. Ethical, and fair. Management is hit or miss, like any company. I'd recommend the company to others.

Cons

The steel industry is slow moving, and isn't up to date with technology or the new management mindsets. Definitely an old school vibe to it. Since people stay so long, and turnover is low, there are limited opportunities for advancement.
