      It's a shame.

      Pros

      Decent pay. Fairly steady employment. Could be a great place to work if it had what I consider real leadership.

      Cons

      There is a definite bias is advancement opportunities. People better suited to do jobs to help the company move forward are routinely denied the chance to do so based on weather or not they wear a certain ring. Through a continual network of lying and denial between management and human resources even new employees come to quickly realize there is nowhere in the company to turn for fairness.The environment on the floor is toxic.The only defense is to not care. Production is suffering greatly.

      Dynamet - A home of unhappy people

      Pros

      Competitive salary for the market, good benefits package including 401k match and healthcare. Willing to pay for additional schooling if manager approves.

      Cons

      One executive level manager over many years has created a very tense environment between the different departments at the company. Trying to accomplish an inter department project is nearly impossible because of this poor environment. Many of the employees there are very nice, but as the saying goes a few bad apples can spoil the bunch. Also hours are extremely long and are not appreciated by upper management. Many employees are not held accountable tor completing there job.

      Cons

      1) Takes a long time to get capital expenditures approved. 2) High turnover in upper management positions including CEO 3) As stated above, many workers there for a long time (some over 35 years) and thus are resistant to change 4) Some equipment there over 35 years, also
