Nucor Hiring Slowdown? What's the story?

Curious if anyone working at Nucor or keeping an eye on their hiring trends has noticed a significant slowdown recently? I've been seeing job postings disappear or not get filled as quickly as they used to. Is this just standard market fluctuation, or could it be a precursor to something else down the line? Obviously, no official layoff news, but sometimes you can feel the shift before anything concrete happens. Wanted to see if others are picking up on similar signals. Especially interested if anyone in recruiting or HR can shed some light on hiring freezes or reduced pipelines.

I've noticed the same thing. Several positions I was tracking in the Carolinas seem to have been put on hold or quietly removed from the careers page. It's hard to say for sure if it's a broad company strategy or specific to certain divisions or regions. The steel market can be pretty cyclical, so it might just be a temporary adjustment in response to current demand or raw material costs. Hopefully, it's just a lull and not a sign of bigger issues.

My uncle works in one of their mills, and he mentioned that while they aren't announcing layoffs, there's definitely been a hiring freeze on some non-essential roles. He thinks it's more about being cautious with spending given the current economic uncertainty and fluctuating material prices. They're still maintaining production, but they're being more selective about who they bring on board. It's a smart move to preserve stability if things get tighter.
