Pros

Excellent pay and benefits, good co workers

Cons

Becoming more interested in management reporting than making steel and serving customers. There is a tremendous push to complete all of the management systems work, but there are not enough people to do it all. Some new initiatives such as shared services do not seem to have been well thought out. If I now have to fill out a form and submit to another something I used to type directly into the system - how does that save any money?

Pros

Great summer experience, workers are great and willing to teach about steel making. Great place to learn about the real manufacturing industry and gain hands-on experience.

Cons

It's a little far from Richmond, and it is not the cleanest environment.
