My roots grow deep here at Metal Works, I feel valued and appreciated and intend to retire here. “

“I started at Metal Works back in Jan of 2006. During my time at Metal Work’s, it has been a great place to work as I have been able to advance and move up through the company with hard work and dedication. I started on the shop floor as a welder in the Misc. Department. I then work my way into Railing and Stair Department. Eventually being promoted to a Lead Position. From there I was able to advance into a Checker Position and began to really see the value of long-term employment here at the company. During my time as a checker, another position opened up in an entirely different department, for a Project Engineer position. I applied and was given another opportunity to show my value at another position in the company. Since my time as a Project Engineer, I have been able to advance again and have moved up to the Project Management Supervisor. This just shows with hard work and dedication Metal Works will provide you with many opportunities to advance your employment, skills, and knowledge.” ~Travis
