Great destination for career engineers - all others beware. - Project Manager Generac Power Systems Employee Review

Pros

If you are an engineer, I suspect you will do very, very well here. It is an engineering outfit; every other employee exists to support engineering (hint hint, know your place).

Cons

Fear seems to be the only mechanism used to influence performance. Feedback was never positive, never upbeat, even when the numbers were met and the stock tripled. Zero opportunities in most departments other than operations and engineering.

Pros

No background checks. Good for people needing a job quickly.

Cons

Where to start? Poor leadership on all levels. A bunch of talk about quality and the customer but are happy pushing out inferior product and dealing with it later, but then blame all the workers (via no quarterly bonus due to impossible metrics they have little/ no control over) instead of correcting the workers responsible. They are SO CHEAP. Cheap in pay, cheap in providing what employees need in a timely manner or if ever, cheap in benefits, cheap all the way around. They want drones, not humans. Very high turnover rate. A lot of promises and little follow up. If you sign up for the annual company picnic and cant make it, they take money directly out of your check for each person signed up to go. Poor training. Reactive, not proactive.
