Encore Wire Reviews

Good job while you are in between jobs, The hours are set and depending on what team you are on you can get a ton of hours. The pay is whatever the hours are long but you can bring in 40k easy a year. The quality control team is really good and the management will work with your situation. Honestly that job was a blessing but not long term in my opinion if you have a life outside of work.If you have the chance to work with Ferrin Gomez or Santana learn everything you can from them good people.

The Truck Entrance Address is 1194 Airport RD. McKinney,TX...Proceed to the Automated Gate and when it opens swing wide and turn right and drive up onto the scale for empty weigh in.

One of the best place for delivered or pick up a load

Need to have a street sign saying truck entrance for shipping and receiving please, otherwise if you pass it you'll be circling around and around!

This place is really slow don t care how long you wait to get loaded but they say there is a drivers lounge and shower if you want to take one. Who is going to come get loaded and take a shower. Stay away from this place

First of all they obviously can t afford a $2.00 sign to show trucks an accurate location for S&R. Is it really that hard? Then you finally get in and guard shack peeps are the usual yapping machines with a lot to say with zero value.
Then you dock and get attitude from an overweight kid that apparently doesn t get paid enough to do his little job bc again... acting like we want something from them instead of trying to give them the load THEY ORDERED!
All in all just one big attitude for running 1800 miles and living outside so they can work local 9-5. Bless their little fragile hearts.

if you do not like your family or free time, then by all means, work here.

Don't know what all the bitching on here is about. Im a mechanic in maintenance department and I love it here... Its real simple show up to work, and get your work done. Chances are you will get along just fine...

An individual I know very well was fired for a VERY MINOR injury.He was most definitely able to continue his duties.
He was early every day and was willing to work as many hours as they would allow.
Never did he or would he file for Workman's Comp. This young man is totally squared away.
Makes 0 sense. Surely someone their can figure out his integrity level which is as good as it gets.
The owner should review and revise this policy. An outstanding employee was let go.

Don t come here
I am here from 9am and still here it s 2:40pm and don t know how long will they take more
So avoid this place

As you're coming down Airport, it's the first available driveway. If you look at Google maps satellite, you'll see an 18 wheeler parked where you go in. Wait for the gate and sharp right turn to check in

The entrance at Airport Drive, Easy in and out, 1 hr loading and they give you axles Weight

No good place to work only 20 our 30 minutes lunch break in 12 hours shift no good

Always no less than 40,00lbs. Make sure are full of fuel.

Very Very Very slow Check in 2:30 pm now Around 5:30 pm still not starting Loading my Truck ELD Running I will try next time Avoid pick up load this company 0 Star

Loaded here.
Good people got me in and out quickly.
They have a scale.

Got loaded and scaled out in about a hr.. Yes I loved it.

I am a supervisor there great place to work l have been there 10 years

Great Company, Great Employees, Great Benefits and an Awesome On-base Clinic! I was employed with Encore from 04/30/2019 to 07/29/2019. I worked for the DC Rewind Scrap sorting copper, aluminum and Tre-cable. I also bailed plastic and cardboard to be sent out for recycling. The aluminum was bailed and sent off to a recycling facility and returned back to Encore. The copper was placed in Hoppers Bins and recycled On-Site. My Supervisors (Day & Night) and Lead Supervisors where great to work with. They observed my work ethics and was pleased of my continuous hard work during my shift. Unfortunately I had to go on leave do to being diagnosed with carpal tunnel in my left hand and underwent surgery. I hope to have the opportunity to work for Encore again once released to return to work from my doctor.

Why is security spending your money harassing a citizen who is taking pictures standing on the public sidewalk in front of your building in Texas? I guess the freedom of press doesn't exist in front of your building. Sgt Joe Pell thought it was illegal & made contact. Filming is legal moran.You can view the video on YouTube under this title Encore Wire - Defense Contractor - McKinney, TX

All these negative reviews are people who couldn t handle it and either quit, or got fired. Laziness won t get you anywhere here. I work the BX Machines and.. I love what I m doing. Rock n roll folks.

Called me in for an interview only to deny me the job immediately due to my background and the fact that I would be attending school full time 2 months later. The lady at the front gate was incompetent and rude, could not even give simple directions. DO NOT APPLY!

Huge facility. Easy to see how they are one of the largest producers in North America!

The people in the shipping office are very helpful and very nice !!I load here every week ...

Your security guards should not be coming off your property to harass citizens walking on the public sidewalk "outside" of your facility. Disgusting...

come in off S airport rd. scale in and out. room to back in large break room w microwave and vending. bathroom got a shower \o/ woohoooo. from wat i hear long loading times ohhhhh. 40k+ lbs.

Been here almost 15 years great place to make a career out of.

Very slow on loading been here 5 hours still waiting

If you are an owner operator and you see this place on the confirmation cancel the pick up it s one of the worst places to be in as a truck driver I have been here for almost five hours

What a joke 7 hrs waiting in your stupid dock wasting my time after a 14 hr day know nothing to eat slowest place on earth.

Bad Management. No moving up the ladder unless you are from Mexico.. Hours are 80+ a week.. The heat in the wearhouses gets dangerously high. All around BAD JOB. Unless you are from Mexico.

Was told to get here for 6pm apt and so started my log. When i got here i was told the product will not be ready till midnight. Why not just be honest? Now i have to do another 10 here just waste of time.

One of the worst places to work in McKinney: long hours, no breaks, managers and supervisors treat employees like the are not people, if you have some type of complain or suggestion, they will laugh in your face or you get the typical answer... "there's the door if you don't like it". They give employees gift cards that managers just keep for themselves, super hot in the summer even at night. If you don't value yourself and like to be treated any other way than how a real person should be treated and to top it all with no good pay, then you should work there.

worst place ever to load out of,
don't be surprised if you end up doing a 10 break or run out of hours

Good and Organized management, Unlike many Others they Unloaded my truck faster than my expectation. Thank you!

Came here to P/U a load going to California. Check in was a breeze, backing was a breeze, and checking out was also a breeze! Fast and they are friendly. Unfortunately I was not able to deliver my load thru because my truck broke down 30 miles after I left and had to go back to get unloaded. Also the same deal-fast. Make sure you get there with full tanks of fuel-they got a scale onsite.

I worked in shipping office until September, 2016. Great place to work.

When I go there and pick up loads of copper wire, they get me loaded quickly

Check in at 4:00 pm, appointment at 8:00 pm, check out at 3:30 am. They got scale though.

Security is a Joke they like harassing citizens journalists that are in gaged in a constitutional protected right From A public sidewalk .
And for the record PHOTOGRAPHY IS Not A CRIME

Very professional loading process. Good docks good freight

Some employees are blatantly racist and its tolerated.

Guess they got rid of all the good workers and left the lazy one's been here for 2and half hrs still haven't been unloaded

Very Hot. Long Hours and Less Money. You Can t Smoke Even in Your Car for 12 Hours. Too Much Security

Pickup load there very fast loading time. I'm a driver and time is money

encore wire has been doing tax evasion for YEARS! They have their employees load up truck after truck at the end of the year and haul off the wire to large storage units so that they don't have to include it in inventory then bring the wire back to the building after inventory and have employees unload ... SHAME ON THEM

Slave house work 21 days straight then decide to give you one little day off not even a weekend. If you have a family don t bother working here, cause u will be married to your job. Low wages, most of the time no breaks, lead men will abuse their power and plant managers won t care. Don t work here.

Not a bad place for employment. However some of the management likes to use threats and intimidation instead of conflict resolution when situations arrise. You don't treat people like that.

If you don't get stuck with one of those as your boss. Wonderful place.

Worked in the Breezway for a year + - Not a hard place to work. The negative reviews are most likely from people that didn't realize this was real work - not an A/C job sitting down.

They scam small companies with bogus insurance claim. Their shippers dont load properly and dont let drivers secure a load. Result - high chance of load shif during transit. They dont admit their shipping practice issues and blame motor carriers.

Most lead men are racist. Also I quit after one of the employees came out of the restroom with poop in his pockets, and started flinging it like a monkey. Shortly after the gentleman quit. Very un professional work place.

I don't usually do reviews but this place deserves
Get unloaded quickly before my appointment
Security is friendly when checking in
Everything is mapped out well

The best company that, you can find any kind of wire with good quality
