Great Place to Work but Expected to be On 24/7 - Vice President TMK Employee Review

Great company to work for

There are no cons at sll

A lot of decent hard working people, mostly in non-management roles.

This place has one of the worst corporate cultures I have seen. It lacks an identity of their own, their strategy to fix this was to attend a garage sale held by USS & Tenaris and picking up all the 5 cent trinkets they could find and put them in management roles. They also have an absurd amount of Directors, most of them are completely incompetent and came from other companies from lower positions. Their lying and manipulating on safety, company strength and quality is beyond criminal. The only semi-decent thing is that will hire people with no experience as inside sales. Once they have 1 to 2 years of experience they are poached by competitors or customers because everyone knows there are almost no advancement opportunities.....mostly lies about them. The few that have moved up have had to fight extremely hard for it and even then got screwed on compensation. The is so much fighting, backstabbing, and throwing each other under the bus across all departments that its no wonder why priority number 1 is CYA and not to make any decisions that go against the wishes of management, no matter how ridiculous those wishes are. The have a horrible reputation in the marketplace amongst distributors, other mills, and even end users.
