Printivity reviews

Pay was is too low for San Diego cost of living. They pay less than Starbucks. They go through a staffing agency.

My time in Printivity's Print department was marked by concerning incidents, particularly under Craig's management. Here are specific examples that highlight the challenges: 1. Inappropriate "Joke" as Threatening Behavior: Upon receiving a key to the facility, Craig handed it to me with what was intended as a joke: "Don't lose that or I'll b#@$! slap you." It's crucial to note that this was the third interaction I had with him after training. While meant in jest, such comments, especially given the context of limited interaction, create an uncomfortable and unprofessional atmosphere within the workplace. 2. Public Humiliation: During a demonstration, Craig publicly commented on my expression, stating that I had a resting "B" face in front of the entire Print department. This type of public humiliation is unacceptable in any professional setting. 3. Compensation and Lack of Growth: The company purports a culture of promoting growth and self-betterment, evident in the bi-annual raises referred to as PBG (Personal Growth and Betterment). However, these raises are not percentage-based and fail to match the cost of living and inflation. The longer you stay, the more it becomes a de facto pay cut. Moreover, the increasing metric targets are unsustainable and exacerbate the financial strain on employees. 4. Lack of Accountability from Management: These issues were brought to the owner, Lawrence. While an apology was given on behalf of Craig, no actions were taken to address the systemic problems within the department. I firmly believe in the adage "you promote what you allow," and the lack of accountability from management perpetuates a toxic work environment. 5. Highest Turnover Rate: Notably, the Print department has the highest turnover rate within the company. This suggests persistent issues that contribute to an unhealthy work environment, impacting employee satisfaction and retention negatively. 6. Overall Environment: The Print department at Prinivity is an environment where mistreatment, condescension, and a complete lack of support are unfortunately the norm. These experiences make it difficult for employees to perform their jobs effectively. This review aims to provide specific instances of unprofessional behavior within the Print department at Printivity, offering a cautionary note for potential employees.
