Nucor Reviews

Pros

Excellent team culture Pay for performance

Cons

Undesirable locations Must be willing to relocate often

Advice to Management

Evolve with the times from a commercial standpoint

Pros

Great company to work for. A lot of incentives that come with company. They reward/compensate according to each mill and how the mill is doing. Team oriented. One of the best companies I have worked for.

Cons

Likely to have to move many times for a longer career

Pros

Management is fair and understands you are a person and not just a body. If you make a mistake, and are honest about it, they will work with you to improve yourself. Management always purchases the right tools for the job. If you need specific tools, make your case to management as to why it's truly needed and they will provide it.

Cons

Production based pay at a facility where production has a defined cap. Drops in production result in a drop in your pay (per hour) regardless if you were a contributing factor to the decrease in production. Benefits package is lacking compared to other big corporations in the area.

Advice to Management

Change bonus structure to safety rather than the current production bonus. The bonus incentives that everyone does their job properly, however if one person makes a mistake and the production rate goes to zero it affects teammates in different units who had no impact on said mistake. Improving the insurance benefits to be more competitive with other corporations would be a huge benefit.

Has moved from employee empowerment to a mainstream "big corporation" mentality. No other what it used to be slowly moving downhill.

Pros

-Great Bonuses - Hard Working Group of People - No defined path, and can learn anything. - Will learn applicable engineering tools.

Cons

-Looked at as the red headed step child group. -Not receptive to change. Change only occurs after the issue happens. -Good ole boy system very present. -Different expectations across the board. -No investment in employees. - Feels like you are working in the 90s when it comes to mentality of life.

Advice to Management

Understand that you should invest in your workers. If they are unhappy, there is no incentive for them to stay. You have to start adapting to what is actually happening in the world. If you do not choose to adapt, you will never keep any real talent in the area.

Pros

Good benefits, pay is great

Cons

Management is horrible. I’ll never work there again
