Generac Power Systems Reviews

Cons

Priorities change frequently at Generac. This can be a negative when not planned appropriately. Balance needed between demand and available resources.

Cons

i dont see no downsides working at generac

Cons

Too soon to tell. First day is coming up

Cons

The management teams within the manufacturing plant are remarkably poor. If you are not the boss's pet you will not go anywhere. They will pass over professional staff that meets all of their requirements for promotion and will instead bring people who do not meet their requirements from other plants. Toxic culture where upper management in the plant view themselves as one team, the support staff view themselves as another team, and the assembly workers fend for themselves. Unrealistic expectations on manufacturing goals and rates. The company does not reinvest in their manufacturing facilities or employees.

Cons

None I have no complaints about this employer

Cons

Many companies offer casual attire all week long, flexible working hours, ability to work from home and something referred to as “work/life” balance to which Generac does not grasp the concept of. Generac is behind the times and cannot seem to understand why turnover is high. Unless you are upper management, your wages and vacation are a joke and can easily be beat be other companies in the area.

Working in HR, everyone knows that your opinion/frustrations/concerns do not matter unless you are at the executive level. Hearing the recruiters time and time again say “ unfortunately we cannot offer you that much” to potential candidates in regards to salary is painful to hear. The pressure on them to recruit at such low wages is just setting them up for failure because the percentage of people willing to take a pay cut to work at Generac is low. The benefits and the payroll departments are severely understaffed as well. Bottom line, you are constantly expected to work above and beyond what you are being paid for without as much as a “thank you” from management.

The CEO is a former accountant which must attribute to why everything and everyone at this company is nickel and dimed. The CEO and HR management do not seem to understand that hiring 5 different people (due to high turnover) for one $13/hr position may keep the wage cost to that department down but the administrative costs of handling all the paperwork, manual entry, on boarding, training etc, is costly, inefficient and drains moral.

Cons

Place is so disorganized

Cons

The non English speaking workers

Cons

I think the most challenging aspect of a rapidly growing company is meeting the demands of scaling processes globally. I think we are starting to turn the corner on that.

Cons

To much drama with oter plants.
