  • Employee Testimonials

    "My experience here at MRS has really been interesting the last 10 1/2 years. I have seen a company grow from about 8-10 employees to around 40 currently. From two axis machines to multi-tasking machines, and from making parts with a tolerance of +/- .005 to +/-.0002, I have also seen every single procedure developed every manual written, every CNC machine brought through the front door and just about every employee hired. It’s a good feeling to come to work and you know for a fact that the owners of this company are going to come around and tell you good morning and chit chat for a while. I’ve always told myself that if I ever have to force myself out of bed to come to work and not enjoy it when I get there it’s time to start looking elsewhere and I can honestly say that has never happened in 10 1/2 years. It has been very satisfying to know that I have been a part of all of MRS Machining’s accomplishments. "

An educational program is set up to develop the knowledge and skills of new employees. The atmosphere is also very friendly and team oriented.

  • Employee Testimonials

    "As an employee of MRS Machining for over 7 years, I’ve been fortunate enough to build a solid career foundation in many facets. I come from a small family-owned dairy farm and in my high school career I was at a loss for a direction to a successful future. With choosing an associate’s degree in Machine Tool and focusing on CNC programming and set-up, I was able to get a jump start financially compared to others my age with a bachelor’s degree. By improving both my technical and soft skills there have been opportunities for advancement and wage increases. In general, machining has provided opportunity and abundance in my life. MRS Machining specifically has supported my own financial stability as well as facilitated personal growth. With a unique combination of problem solving on the shop floor and teamwork throughout the shop, there is one common goal; success."
