It’s interesting to read these reviews.  As we all know, the ‘bad apples” that are removed from the operation, will never have anything good to say.  They feel some sort of victory in trashing a company that gave them an opportunity.  It’s always someone else’s fault when they don’t succeed.
Here are the facts.  It’s a smaller company that cares for its employees.  The compensation is competitive, and the benefits are excellent.  The management at all levels is solid and knows the industry and processes extremely well. Those who want to learn and grow have an opportunity to do so if they choose.  Those who want to coast along will be weeded out, and of course they will blame others.


They have horrible management, and the company likes to play favorites, some people get away with not doing much while they expect others to pickup the pace while being underpaid. There's really no room for advancement and you'll be lucky to get a 1 dollar raise in 5yrs. And the Union in that company is trash, they are bought and paid for, you'll never win a grievance against that company, and if you dare have a grievance against the company they will try to retaliate with bogus write ups.


No job advancement and terrible management. From the president to the plant manager to the supervisor to the leadman they don't know how to do their jobs. Too many politics involved. Only reason that place is still running is because of the veterans on the floor picking up the slack for management. Plus the office people are terrible and incompetent.

The hardest part of the job was that working with others that did not respect you and your soroundings management was good it was fair work place was good just that some people were clumsy but the most enjoyable part was traveling and learning how to red blue prints 

Good people on the floor ,
Ownership not to good with its staff.
Not willing to give a proper opportunity 
Instead they pull the plug on you .

Don’t think I was given  fair shot ,
Believe things could’ve been worked out 
Better than how it all played out.

No hard feelings , just don’t think the new
Ownership there has any clue of as to what they’re doing

Busy office with plenty of work and fun to stay nice and involved.  Learned to run an office from start to finish.  Purchasing and stocking. Like family with outings and cookouts.

The foreman’s are major idiots who think they are hard but ain’t nothing but your average joe. I’d say if you work there go ahead and be prepared to work with some great people and some stupid people too.

The job was great and the people are great to work with.  Management is on the ball, but since it is a smaller company, very personal also.  It was easy to establish yourself and make suggestions that would make the day go by faster and be more productive.

Awesome place honestly.  Not much to say because there's a lot.  Not many jobs I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed, and felt comfortable.  From the owners down to the people next to you 

This was my first job as an adult dealing with welding so I definitely gained plenty of experience and excelled in being a logistics specialists.Learned something different everyday.
