      Pros

      The benefits were good; the pay was average; good people to work with

      Cons

      good ol' boys club. Not a lot of opportunity for growth, especially for women. Local management lacks integrity; no leadership nor critical thinking skills. It's a company that encourages blind allegiance to the strategy of the company.

      Pros

      We are experiencing an opportunity to reshape the steel service industry. The current and previous CEO's are from outside the service center industry, and have brought a different vision to a very traditional business in a very traditional industry. Our sights are no longer set on being the best in the metal service center industry, our sights are set on finding ways to compete with service leaders across all industries. The speed of change is brisk, yet manageable and a little refreshing for a long term employee! Its a good time to be part of Ryerson as we are outperforming the industry, and it feels like we have many competitors that are trying to keep up!

      Cons

      Not a con, but a reality. We are what we are....a steel service center & processing company. We are working to thrive in the manufacturing business in the US. Glitz and glamour we are not! Part of the backbone of the US manufacturing business we are!

      Pros

      Wide breadth of inventory - expands customer base.

      Cons

      Lost focus on the customer and focused on the wrong business that eroded sales.
