Still, one contact "worked with absolutely the finest Blast Furnace people in the world" and says the "work ethic [U.S. Steel] helped me develop has made me what I am." "The outlook for the industry and [the] one for the company is about the same," says a Birmingham, Ala., insider. However, U.S. Steel has some "strengths," such as its "European involvement."
