Cleveland-Cliffs Reviews

Pros

Employee focused and friendly. Leadership is and shows interest in the employees. They do believe in work life balance. Good senior leadership. Compensation is very competitive. Friendly atmosphere at headquarters

Cons

Growing pretty fast has caused some employees to feel squeezed out. Still catching up on IT items and technology. There is limited knowledge sharing about what is going on at the mines.

Advice to Senior Management

Focus a little more attention at the mines. Employees there are essential front liners.

Pros

Pay and benefits package is by far the best around. On paper, the work force is treated well. Monthly bonus program and profit sharing help a bunch.

Cons

Management has unreal expectations of crews. I believe that maintenance crews need to really FIX problems rather than put band aids on. Management system is messed up. Can be as many managers as operators, many of which have a real disconnect with those getting dirty.

Advice to Senior Management

Continue to run programs such as gainshare and quarterly profit sharing. Do NOT change the benefit package. Must learn to promote from within in a more proper manner. Must learn to watch the activities of Section Managers more closely. Their disconnect to what happens day to day is definitely apparent.
