What are perks and other benefits like at Transcat?

The company is run well, the pay is above standard, excellent benefits, great work atmosphere.

The timesheet app they use wouldn’t work sometimes and I would have to go back and fix all my times.

Under the old leadership and CEO this company was slowly growing a great work atmosphere where everyone felt like they were contributing the team. We had great benefits package and leadership who listened to any ideas or concerns we had. Small benefits that Field Technicians experienced were encouraged by management to help your work/home life more tolerable.

Under the NEW CEO and CFO everything is completely centered around the revenue cycle and percentages of margins. All extra small benefits that help with work/home life are taken away. We are being told we do bring in revenue and there fore not at the forefront. They have began nickel and diming all expenses and timesheets. Any atmosphere of teamwork and welcome atmoshpere is slowly being erouded. Customer are complaining of the new systems being placed stating all the advantages that made us different are gone. There is little to no upward movement available for anyone in the field work side of the company.

The most enjoyable part was the people I worked alongside and who worked for me. I cannot say enough positivity about the people who keep the lights on. The benefits were standard for a corporate environment. The compensation was all over the place, but I was paid decent for my time.

Management hammers down unrealistic expectations and goals that you personally to meet, which is impossible given their timelines without working 60-80+ hours a week. The company rather would spend tens of millions of dollars on botched acquisitions of other related companies to artificially inflate their stock prices instead of increasing their workforce to compensate for the increased workload. Nothing is structured, nothing is uniform, and nothing makes any sense. The technology is a hodge-podge of "let's just make it work and deal with it later" solutions to keep upper management happy. Then when that solution is no longer viable, the mid-level management gets the third degree for not being given enough resources to implement a proper solution, despite the warnings to upper management that the solution was not viable long-term. They don't care. As long as upper management gets their bonuses and shareholders see gains, they don't care how it gets there, but don't call them out on it, or you'll find yourself on the unemployment line. They fired me for "unsatisfactory performance", but I never had a single review, performance improvement plan, nor was I still on probation at 10 months post hire. It was coincidentally the day I was about to ask for a LOA to help my family care for my father-in-law who was dying of cancer at the time, which was disclosed to upper management a week prior to my dismissal. They're so disorganized and disconnected that when I emailed them and request they just send shipping labels to me to return my work equipment (as I already had the shipping boxes to return them), they instead shipping two giant boxes overnight with labels inside, wasting even more money. Further, when the state unemployment office received the paperwork on my discharge, they found insufficient evidence of wrongdoing on my part and approved my unemployment claims. Stay away from this company, I passed up a cushy IT Director job at a private university that paid $10k less a year to work for Transcat and I regretted it every day. I've worked for many companies with networks and environments much larger and never had the enormity of issues and red flags as Transcat. Since leaving the company in late 2024, their stock tanked 40%, further highlighting the fragility and mismanagement going on from the top of the company.

Good benefits, friendly team, nice people

Communication between labs was difficult Team lead really spooked me with how they switched up on you from one moment to the next.

Company pays well and benefits are decent

Mandatory overtime is constant which really effects your work life balance

They have standard corporate benefits

No culture. Limited career growth. Don't care about their employees.

Pay, work life balance and benefits

Communication with HR and upper management is on their convenience.

Hiring people in at decent pay. Benefits are pretty standard it seems.

Employees that have been with company have to threaten to quite in order to get decent raises. Else its just 3% annually. Also management job security is volatile

Pay and benefits a fairly decent for the area. Traveling to new places. Most everything you need is provided to you. Also while on the road you are well taken care of company pays for all meal, hotels, fuel, and provides a company vehicle.

Lack of proper training, some of the senior techs are willing to train but are not allowed to from management. This cause techs to look bad onsite because there no properly trained for the equipment they are calibrating
