Maysteel Reviews

Pros

Decent benefits. Emphasis on engineering. Interesting projects to work on.

Cons

Old-fashioned company, not a good work-life balance. Some people had hybrid working schedules and some weren't allowed to. Not a lot of diversity, especially in the executive level, especially at the Allenton location. Not a lot of growth opportunities. Some management could use more training on being a leader. They try to make it a "family" culture, but it definitely did not feel like family, and cultivating loyalty was not a priority.

Pros

Great people! Everyone is willing to work with you. Clean facility and high safety considerations.

Cons

Do not have remote working. Production workers do not receive vacation during first year.

Pros

Good people to work with

Cons

Indecisive supervisors poor working enviroment working in departments outside of your area

Pros

If you just want to walk around all day and not get in trouble for it, then this is your place to work.

Cons

Below average pay in every aera, toxic work investment from management down. Forced overtime non stop.

Pros

Helpful coworkers, knowledgeable management, continuous growth

Cons

Location of facility, office layout

Pros

When the manager tells you to "build, build, build" giving you thoughts of job security. Most of the people you work with not only do their job, but were some of the best that you had ever worked with.

Cons

Very poorly ran from the start and no change in site with worse conditions pending in the future leading to a lost cause.

Pros

Had some changeover in management to bring about changes for the better. The newer senior management was better.

Cons

Small company trying to act like big company. Did not progress with time, kept doing the same things expecting different results, stuck in the 70s - 80s era.

Pros

Co-workers are some of the best I've ever had. Not only are they dedicated to their craft, but also to each other. The Executive Level is very good at communicating organizational goals and standings via All-Employee meetings. Departments aren't "siloed", so high performers have outlets for extra opportunity.

Cons

Located in a rural community, it's easy to underestimate Maysteel's offerings. I wish I had known about them sooner!

Pros

Freedom to work on your own while still being in a team environment, management was easy to get along with.

Cons

Management seemed to favor some employees over others for reasons that were unclear.

Pros

Good at training new employees

Cons

Upper management is a revolving door.
