January 2017
Live to work/work to live.
Machinist in Detroit:
Know what type of schedule your target company keeps, they vary greatly. Privately held companies tend to work a lot of overtime which is great for compensation but, terrible for life outside of work. To be honest since the 2008-2010 downturn most companies fall into this trend since skilled labor seems to be difficult to come by.
January 2017
There isn't a set pay rate per position.
Machinist:
Don't sell yourself short starting out demand the top dollar you can get to start with because it's unlikely your employer if they're like mine will reward you accordingly. We don't even have a yearly review you just get a raise or you don't it may be 50 cents it may be $2.00 an hour it may be nothing!
