BRT Extrusions, Inc., Niles OH

Food delivery drivers beware. If you have to deliver to one of the employees here, chances are you're going to have to deal with a security guard named Darrel. I recommend having a phone handy so you can record your interaction with him as you might need it. He is the kind of person who likes to go on power trips and thinks he's above everybody else. I had to deliver a grubhub delivery here last month and he was very rude about it and was going on a power trip with me even though I did nothing wrong and was very polite with him. I will retract this statement if he is fired which I highly doubt will happen.

Please note that this has been edited as I've added a bit more and saw a review from another person who is actually a truck driver and had to deal with him. I'll update this review if I have any future encounters with him.

All in all this place is fast unloading. Sometimes they do load their trucks first but that’s to be expected at any warehouse. Check in is at 7am and believe me if your a minute early she will tell you to wait that full extra minute. The forklift drivers as good they don’t damage your equipment. The only complaint I have is one of their security guards that man takes his job WAY TOO SERIOUSLY. Like give the truck drivers a moment to check their next destination or submit our paperwork to our dispatch. As soon as you unload he’s already kicking you out the gate claiming they have multiple trailers to load and need the space. That guy has no communication with their yard jockey or the lady at check in because if he did he’d know that the yard jockey only brings one trailer to get loaded at a time. There’s enough space for about 6 trucks. Give us a moment to do what we have to and we’ll be on our way.

I Would Have To Say This Company Is Beyond Worth It, Due To Unforeseen Circumstances I Had Some Family Issues And They We’re Very Welcoming In Helping In The Aspect Of Work… I Would Recommend This Job To Anybody Great Place Thank You All!

Worked there 13 years and they finally refused to allow me to work when new machines we bought and they would not make reasonable accommodations (or even offer any) - I'd hoped that maintenance and procedures and improvements would come when the new owners fired the plant manager but the GM and others just doubled down on stupid - roof still leaks everywhere, it's prone to flooding, safety walkway is an unnecessary safety hazzard, managers are not competent - most employees are cool but you'll have occasional bad apples - you can take pride in the made in America label on all their products but you won't have any pride in the BRT label - after 10 years of so pay was starting to be competitive so you can probably earn a decent living if you can put up with the B. S.

Shone are safety hazards that have persisted for years and have been made worse by management decisions such as wet floors when it rains and fire extinguishers inaccessible because of unnecessary barriers which also restrict you from walking on dry floor - also pictured is a typical electrical repair - not sure why OSHA hasn't shut them down

I wouldn’t recommend my worst enemy to work here. They let anybody drive the tow Motors that don’t even know how to drive it which can cause people to get hurt. They don’t even pay good for 12 long hours $14.00. But thanks for terminating me, Gotten something better.

Sleep here over night, be the first and only truck at 7: 00 for delivery and they said is a long time to wait because they have 4 of their trailers to unload first!
Update: after 3 hours of waiting, repeat the only truck for delivery, they unloaded me in exactly 9 min! I have to mention that wasn’t any situation like no power or broken equipment…. Is just the way how this company is doing business
