Management is terrible and they all look out for only themselves
office worker (Former Employee) – Ontario – 11 December 2018
If you like the thought of working at a place where survivor meets the apprentice, this is definitely the place for you. There is no advancement unless you are in with those who are managers. Hard work is rarely recognized or rewarded. Some of the staff are good, hard working, decent individuals. If you're looking for simply a paycheque and benefits, this is your place for it
Pros
easy money
Cons
terrible management
cad monkey
Structural Steel Detailer (Former Employee) – Stoney Creek, ON – 11 October 2018

reinforcing ironworker apprentice (Former Employee) – Leduc, AB – 25 June 2018
the short time i worked there it was some of the most physically demanding job ive ever had. from extremem conditions to the possible dangers involved. but the crew makes it worth it as most of the guys joke around make time fly by
Ups and Downs - good work when you can get it
Rodman (Former Employee) – Delta, BC – 18 April 2018
Rodbusting at its best on the west coast; unfortunately work is sporadic when the rest of the city is booming.
Managers and supervisors play their favorites and do little unless you are willing to pay tribute to them.

Payroll Administrator (Former Employee) – Stoney Creek, ON – 15 April 2018
Management sucks..had a manager who dated a employee and shared personal information with this individual..hated working there, I would not recommend to friends or family

If management changes this would be a great place
Accounting (Former Employee) – Stoney Creek, ON – 28 March 2018
Management is killing the culture at Harris Rebar. It's a great company with job security and advancement (if you take the time to hang around). Management is slowly killing the staff and culture by keeping senior managers who only look after themselves and treat the staff like garbage. If management would change and find people who look after the employees, this would be the best place to work.
Pros
Location, benefits, work-life balance
Cons
Management
Good union job
Ironworker Apprentice (Former Employee) – Vancouver, BC – 26 March 2018
one of the only companies that pays there employees right based on there work ethic I learned alot in my short time here much better then LMS but too many politics and somebody is always angry over where they were placed and not enough money. hours were good and always guaranteed job
not too great
Journeyman Ironworker (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 23 March 2018
the reason i decided to develop into safety, the company has alot of short cuts as well as plays favoritism, they keep apprentices employed and lay off journeyman.
poor company culture!

Typical Large American Corporation
Plant Manager (Former Employee) – Stoney Creek, ON – 29 November 2017
It use to be a great place to work. Once Nucor took it over now its all about numbers. Even the employees are just a numbers. They want production results without investing in machinery. It is such a shame. After 30 yrs of dedicated service I was tossed aside for no reason. Middle management is not a safe place to be.
Pros
Good Pay
Cons
Upper management
Fast Paced Physically Demanding hard work

OfficeTeam Temporary Assignments (Former Employee) – Stoney Creek, ON – 17 August 2017
It was a pleasure working at this company. Very organized. Staff very knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions you may have. Had an informative manual to refer too should I had a question and no one was around to assist.
Good company just gotta keep us working
Journeyman Ironworker (Former Employee) – Vancouver, BC – 6 August 2017
A typical day starts with our daily schedule and safety and comments about the previous day and who's working where and with who and then a team stretch lasts about ten min then it's off too work I must say working is mostly productive almost the whole day because everyone works as a team and it all comes together!
Pros
Good pay
Cons
Never enough work
Detailer
Detailer (Former Employee) – Dartmouth, NS – 15 May 2017
Manager needed to be appeased. Enough said. The fellow employees were great and the work was fine. No training was provided however. The radio HAD to be on all day and we weren't allowed to wear our own headphones because the manager wanted to be able to yell to all of us at once without waiting.
