Pros

Since I've joined Metal Shark, production has been thriving. The company benefits from a diverse customer base in the government, commercial and even recreational boat market. Internationally demand for military and commercial vessels has also increased significantly. Last but not least the addition of another shipyard is allowing the company to enter a new market for bigger military and commercial ships. We are aggressive and pursue every opportunity worldwide.

Cons

The company is suffering the typical issues of a fast growing company that is ramping up production, finding quality labor and maintaining the strict level of military grade quality they are known for. The management team is smart and creative enough to cure the growing pains.

Pros

Metalshark is owned by some of the most endearing people who genuinely care for the well being of their fellow employees. It shows by the liberal pay compensation they allot to their hard working employees. There are plenty of opportunities to grow and to master the trades by way of the exemplary training programs they have established. It was through Metalshark that I was able to get certified as a welder at no cost to me, all I had to do was show up! This company is definitely in a league of it's own and I would highly recommend anyone seeking to go pro, to join this winning team!

Cons

I really don't have any cons to list because this company has done so much for me and my family. They have given me multiple opportunities to be a provider for the people I love and for that I respect them.
