the benefits are good.  The work is not hard, but there is alot of it and always understaffed. I am the Team Lead for the Shipping, Receiving and billing.  We are worldwide.  I deal not only with customers here in the United States, but all over the world.  I have to make sure that any metal that we received meets both physical and chemical test requirements, inventory is updated when it is received as well as when orders are completed and shipped out, billing the customer, as well as debits and credits, and various other tasks as required.  TW has some good employees and they try to make sure the customer is completely satisfied.  The quality of the metals they sell is above the average standards.

Don't be late, if you're going to be, text or call ur manager. Don't trust that anyone is your friend, bc they might be super friendly to your face but go to management if they think you are getting away with something they don't do. Management was lacking when I was there, and unlike other tw metals you had to work in every area and got paid less that tw metals in other places that you only have to work one job.

The work is repetitive.  You do learn alot but they won't help earn because of your knowledge.  They practice alot of favoritism and  run this place with a high school qlick mentality.  The work is not hard but the butit is a toxic work environment.  You do get to work with some great people who will try to help you learn your job well and keep you safe but the management is the worst part of this company 

If you enjoy physical work and want to be part of a team, this job could be just right for you. As a warehouse operative, you would deal with goods and products that come into a warehouse or stockroom.

You do not need any specific qualifications to be a warehouse operative. Basic English, maths and IT skills would be useful. 

To become a warehouse operative, you will need to have a good level of fitness. You’ll need to be able to work quickly. And you’ll also need to complete paperwork and count stock items.

Invoicing customers for shipped materials.
Calling in local carriers for pickups.
Contacting sales on shipments and deadlines.
Preparing paper work for truck drivers.
Organization of incoming materials. 
Checking material for scratches, dents, creases, adhesives.
Double checking packed material for right part number and grade.
Overseeing picking and packing. 
Training of all new employee.

management does not support their employees. if you dont immediately buy into the culture you will always be an outsider. no room to advance because all the old dudes want to stick around until they can retire. there's going to be a huge gap in knowledge when the career workers leave. computer system is about 40 years old and has never been replaced.

Opportunities for those that want to work at a higher level. Inclusive management style and good communication, generally speaking. The company is modernizing and change can be difficult for tenured employees that are used to stagnant management. Good support from corporate office. Well sized business - small enough that you can be seen and have impact, large enough that there is sufficient capital to turn ideas into reality. High expectations all around.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The hard work you put in shows and you can advance and keep moving up with the company

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working with people that don’t care can affect your job

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fun, but get things done!!! You are rewarded for hard work

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get there, get my work done, and help other departments as needed

Worked here 24 years, trained in many aspects of company over the years. In the end the parent company merged us with a sister co.
and added a third co. they changed management and it seemed they
were preparing to sell the company business dropped off and most employees became unhappy. I decided to move on and went to hauling haz mat.

Co-workers treat you like family and management is very manipulative and toxic, stay far away from this company. Senior employees feel like they are entitled to do little work and the Management will protect them Which leads the new employees to pick up the stack. And overtime doesn’t exist there because they’re cheap, enjoy your pizza party
