No engineering done here. CAD only

Pros

There was no time sheet to be filled out every week. So, when there was nothing to do, I still got paid.

Cons

If you, as an engineer, are looking to do engineering, this place is not for you. If you are CAD proficient and dont care about drafting every single day, join this place. Salary is way below market for an engineer.

Pros

Great place to learn as a first job out of weld school but if you have any prior experience keep looking.

Cons

Pay sucks for what has to be done on the spiral side working for long periods of time inside of 24” pipe isn’t worth $22 an hour. Benefits were great but the idea that Nucor came out with in early 2020 that the employees need to share more of the cost for health insurance is ridiculous. Promised performance based bonuses in early 2020 but Covid pushed back the timeline indefinitely, I don’t know if they ever got them. Micromanaging management but they can’t keep track of work orders or schedule. Backstabbing culture that is designed to get people to tattle.
