Haynes International

Haynes is a good company to work for if you just show up and do your job well. The main complaint I had while working there was too much-forced overtime. I worked hard and produced lots of quality product and management showed their appreciation by really trying to help me when I started to have a long-term medical issue. I was in and out of work on long stints of sick leave. When I was able to work my immediate supervisor and general foreman did everything they could to accommodate my needs and to make it easier for me to do my job. 
 Finally, after a couple of years of this, my doctors decided that I needed to go on total permanent disability. The guys in my department suggested they could move some equipment to my garage and I could work from there. My foreman and the general foreman agreed and took it to upper management who decided they couldn't do it due to insurance problems. They then offered to send me to Purdue University full time and free of charge with pay to get a degree for a job they needed to be filled that they felt I could do. I ended up leaving on disability due to the severity of my illness but I could not have been treated better and I felt like they really did care about me,

I enjoyed the job, and the people.the benifits, the feel of family, the management keeping updated equipment, everyone working together.I did the testing to see how much pressure our pipe would hold up too before it broke,bend, what chemicals it could with stand. our test had to be 100 precent accurate.We had a safety meeting every morning, we decussed and equipment that might be faulty,also any concerns an employee might have or suggestions to make the job easier.any test that fails has to be retested 3 times if it fails any of the 3 times all the pipe with that number has to be melted down and start over.this comes with the accuracy and quality we provide for our customers.Our quality and service starts with every employee at Haynes International inc. the standards and service from the workers to the management each. They also had clients come in an tour the facility and staff.

Clock in 15min early, go to safety meeting, find out if there was any change in schedule for any mill, pull setup, Do any die changes (die changes could take between 45mins to 2 hours depending on what material we where going to run) try to get next die change ready for the next shift, also had to keep very detailed paper work on everything we did or didn't have to do to mill, check inventory every night, fill out order paper work, If a mill went down or had any marks on tubes have to find and correct the error, could range from dies to main drive needing replacing, bearing going out, to operator not knowing the speed or if the lube was bad.

A typical was the same as every day unless I had to clean out one of my tanks that help dangerous chemicals.I learned about difference pipes and chemicals that travel around the world.My managers where great although they didn't bother me as much cause I didn't need them around while I worked.The workplace was awesome the other people I worked with helped me alot.The hardest part was getting some pipes from one side of the plant to my station.The most enjoyable was that I felt like my own boss at times.

A typical day at work consisted of wearing PPE and working on various machinery.  I learned and qualified on various machines that produced alloyed products.  May co-workers/trainers were excellent to work with and learn from as I progressed qualifying from on job to the next, until I had completed all of my qualifications.  Everything I learned was indeed challenging, but I enjoyed learning and then being able to train others that came along after me.

Very relaxed , good people to work with , overtime is mandatory,  72 hours per week, mandatory  4 twelve hour work days, and mandatory  weekends every other week. Maximum 60 hour per month overtime. Smartphones in plant are illegal,  but not enforced. Most supervisors turn there head . Great atmosphere, hot in some areas,cold in others.work is not hard.very critical andimporta

Company pretty much sucks.They work harder getting you out the door than getting you in.Once you enter in the union watch your back from upper management not including supervision they will try and burn you from day one.If you have fmla you automatically have a target on your head .If I had to do it over again I'd run from this company.They do not care about your home life or anything you have going on  goin on outside of work.

all employees were all trained on 90% of all production jobs. daily and weekly job rotation. Attention to detail was critical for aerospace customers . Traceable paperwork , tolerances sometimes were the hardest to meet on some metal gauges +/_ 10.000. enjoyable to rotate workstations with co-workers who truly cared about quality.

Haynes started up the new facility in Laporte in 2017. They're still ironing out some wrinkles and it's difficult to say what everything will be like once it's all done. They are expecting to add a third shift to the two they already have and have increased the pay scale in order to attract more experienced workers.
