Pros

decent vacation and time off policy company is growing

Cons

As with many companies that started small, there are many whole families that work at Fort Wayne Metals. Nepotism was a constant problem when I worked there, and hiring was far from diverse. The best talent would often be easily headhunted by other companies, as salaries are low at FWM for the region, and parental leave policies are not up to par for companies on the forefront of recruiting.

We are glad you’re a part of the Fort Wayne Metals family and appreciate your years of service. From granting additional paid time off to the Quarter Century Club (honoring those who've worked for 25 years at Fort Wayne Metals), we are proud to celebrate our long-tenured employees.

Pros

Good attempts at employee engagement. On par with most high end companies for benefits.

Cons

Old school buddy buddy network. Low flyers who have risen beyond their skill set get recycled into same positions. Very destructive to modern employee engagement and expectations. Company underpays salary employees. Whatever level you come in at you can’t rise more than 10%.
