Ryerson Reviews

Pros

You are exposed to a lot of high-level financial information, with tons of data access. You are also given the opportunity to take on as many projects as you would like, and are given the change to collaborate with others in the department. Everyone is also very open to questions, and are willing to help.

Cons

First few weeks are slow, but the pace picks up fast

Advice to Management

Keep it up

Pros

Lots of opportunity if you play the game and network internally.

If you're just about doing your job, you won't be offered opportunities given to those who don't schmooze to the right people in order to be noticed.

Advice to Management

Realize your inside staff aren't clerks and hold the true account relationship.

Pros

The pay and co workers make the job worth it.

Cons

Management doesn’t have structure nor communication, innovation is frowned upon at the Greensboro warehouse. After a while the pay isn’t worth the stress and abandonment that management causes!

Less buddy system more accountability and more training for incoming employees. Consistency is warehouse managements most major problem and planning. Stop being soo last minute with everything!

Pros

I have been with Ryerson going on one year in outside sales with a previous background in the metals industry. This company has been one of the best I have worked for. Despite its size, everyone feels like and treats you like family. Managers truly care about you as an employee and a person. Not just direct managers but upper management as well. They are actively involved (including the CEO), communicating with... employees on the ground floor making sure they keep everyone actively engaged in company wide goals while making sure those employees understand the role they play in achieving these goals. Ryerson makes it very clear and reminds employees of their value and how they individually contribute to the bottom line. They actively ask what your desires are in regards to upward movement within the company and pay at or above industry standards. If you work hard for Ryerson, they will work hard for you. Still the best in the metals industry.

Cons

No cons significant enough to mention.
