Tubular Steel, Inc.

The work itself was easy to learn with the way the company taught, they even taught you how to use measuring equipment and tools. However, the management is terrible there in New Haven. Managers harass you about things that aren't your fault, you're expected to work overtime if you're in any position above General Metal Fab, and something I took great issue with; the entire plant is basically a "good ole' boys club"; women and minorities being very minimal and absolutely none in plant management at the time I worked there. Overall, the environment at this location can be extremely toxic if you're not older, a man, Caucasian, or you're not very "outdoorsy" . Other than that, it's a fairly laid back place to work and you'd probably enjoy it if you weren't a minority or younger.

I worked second shift, the work was pretty simple once I got the hang of the sideloader. My day consisted of receiving customer orders, fulfilling them, and ensuring the quality and accuracy of what was ordered was up to par. While my peers were great to work with and be around, the manager on that shift was not someone I'd ever want to work for again. By far the worst manager I have ever worked for, he showed very little respect for the company as well as the people working under him. Aside from that, my favorite part of working for Tubular, was the size of the warehouse, it was a smaller warehouse than I was used to, but there was a great sense of family within the sales and operations departments.  I may have stayed with the company had the pay been better.

I worked at Tubular steel for about a year, the plant manager was rude and inconsiderate, but was nice enough to make a deal that i would finish school and return to work at the same rate. When I tried to return new management was in place and would not honor this deal and acted as though they could only offer 4$/hour less than I was making to do essentially all the work of running the machine, checking tubes for defects, die changes, changeovers, etc. while the supervisors sat in the office doing minimal paperwork. Overall terrible place to work.

Worst place I've ever worked in. You got 3 guys working out of a tiny office and tiny shop that smells bad. Always urinating right outside the door making it smell bad. Everything has to be done outside in the daily element of the weather with no cover or protection what so ever. The other 2 service technician are the laziest people. They don't believe in teamwork.
They have total disregard for safety and one of them is constantly smoking everywhere inside and outside the shop regardless of all the flammable container around him. No overtime. I have brought all this up to management but they don't care.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Chilling and doing my job that's it

It was the perfect job, close to home steady work, its been open for 60 plus years, the pay was good but all of a sudden the president wants to shut it down by December and we all have to find new jobs, i have been there for 2 years and the president said he knew this foe 3 years. everyone is heartbroken and are very hurt and upset most have been there 30 plus years and now their future is shaky. its not fair they are moving all the machines and material to Hazelwood Mo. 

Most days were routine. I learn two different computer systems.  I worked on the freight, the material and misc. invoices.  I worked with vendors from many different locales.  It was a family owned business and had the feel of a family working together.  The long drive in rush hour traffic.  Feeling that the job I was doing was important and that I was good at it.

I loved everything and my co workers
