About Bill
Bill Meier works at Niagara Specialty Metals in a maintenance role, serving as a machinist, welder, and mechanic.
Why Ownership Culture Matters
Bill appreciates working in an employee-owned company because people genuinely care about the work. He sees teammates putting in extra effort, helping one another, and sharing in the company’s success. That shared ownership creates a culture where people work harder — not just for themselves, but for each other.
