Terrible Management

Steel Worker (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 26 November 2023

The job and the money itself is okay. However, the upper and middle management are horrible. They don't care about production peoples opinions nor do they have any sympathy for people working shift work.

Great people, hard work

Team Member (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 26 October 2023

All good, just don't ask if they could get the other crew to do their jobs... Otherwise they let you go trying to say that you're not a high performer

Balanced work load

Material Handler (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 21 September 2023

A bad day at work there is still better than most good days I've had at other jobs. Shifts are hard to get use to but do ableSwitching from nights to days in the same week can be tough. However of you enjoy time off during the week for errands and don't mind working every other weekend continental shifts work great.Majority of people are very friendly and have a positive attitude.

Pros

Lots of over time available. Some departments allow shift trades. Bennefits and pension are decent

Cons

Short change over from nights to days (36 hours to switch sleep but only happens twice a month)

GREAT talk VERY Minimal Action, plenty of smoke in mirrors

Maintenance Worker (Current Employee) - Hamilton Beach, ON - 14 September 2023

The verbiage they produce is VERY Enticing prior to actually getting hired, they enjoy talking and advertising "Strength is People"!! 40 or 50yrs ago believable YES. Today it is nothing more than a Punch Line that has most definitely wore its course.

Electrician (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ontario - 13 September 2023

Pay is okay, benefits are poor. More leaders than workers. A lot of safety talk but no real change. Currently on a 4-10 schedule which is actually great, OT was killer in the past.

Might be worth it for you idk.

Tube (Former Employee) - Hamilton - 18 August 2023

Dirty and dusty work environment but the job wasnt that hard. Being on contract for two years was the final nail in the coffin for me. Just a typical manufacturing job, nothing special.

Pros

Wage

Cons

contract

Compagnie dépourvue de leadership.

Project Manager (Former Employee) - Port-Cartier, QC - 14 August 2023

Compagnie dirigé par des incompétents qui tentent de réinventer la roue. Les employés de direction sont du type béni -ouioui complaisant pas du tout aligné sur les résultats. La rétention des cadres est très basse , filtrant que les meilleurs éléments quittent. Paradis pour employés syndiqués et niveau toxique pour employés cadre.

Supervisor at Tubular

Production Supervisor (Former Employee) - Woodstock, ON - 3 August 2023

Supervisor position at Woodstock Tubular be ready for the knives. Toxic Managers that make fun of people when they aren't there. If you screw up weekly but management thinks you are controllable you will succeed. Have an opinion?...you are on your way out. No bonuses for contract but they have been frozen for years anyways unless you are a manager. Be ready to cover weekends alone with no support!

Pros

Knowledgeable workforce.

Cons

Old boys club Managers

Malheureusement, côté direction, c’est trop souvent leurs connaissances ou amis (es ). De cette façon ça fait des yes men. 🤷

Employé (Former Employee) - Quebec, QC - 2 August 2023

Malheureusement la SST est une priorité tant et aussi longtemps qu’elle n’affecte pas la production, sinon, elle passe deuxième

Pros

Fly in/Fly out

Cons

Aucun esprit de famille de la part des cadres

Good experience, poor leadership and management.

Electrician (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 27 July 2023

Great place to gain experience and exposure to all sorts of equipment and generations of electrical and mechanical devices. Not a great environment to work in, depending where you are placed. Lots of old school boys club politics and drama which is tiresome and juvenile. Leadership has evolved into a lot of young guys with no experience and no clue how to work with and for people as leadership. Pay is good and profit sharing has been plentiful in recent years. Benefits keep getting slashed so they aren't particularly competitive.

Steel Town

Tradesman (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 15 June 2023

Ah, ArcelorMittal Dofasco! Where the sky's the limit, as long as that limit is within the budget constraints set forth by a microscopic line item in an excel sheet. Where the heart of an employee isn't measured by the passion for their work, but by the amount of raw profit they can churn out from their veins. But hey, the co-workers are the best you'd ever find. Imagine the camaraderie of comrades in the trenches, except the trenches are steel mills and the comrades, your fellow profit-miners.After joining, the company does put a rather generous vacation pay on the table, a veritable feast for the starved employee. However, don't be too quick to don your Hawaiian shirt and pack your bags for the Bahamas. You see, it's like an elaborate, corporate sleight of hand. Give notice before two years of employment, and poof! Your vacation pay disappears faster than you can say "unfair labor practice". But where's the fun in vacationing before two years anyway? The thrill of the steel mills, the clanging and banging, is the only music you'll need.Looking for the exact rules on these policies? My friend, welcome to the enchanting labyrinth of ambiguity that is ArcelorMittal Dofasco's policies. You could potentially get lost in it, like in an abstract art piece where each stroke represents the existential dread of an employee trying to comprehend their rights. Not only do you sign to agree to the company's terms, but you also unwittingly sign up for an intense workout for your problem-solving skills. It's like playing 4D chess with a twist, except the twist is that the rules keep changing. -
