Horrible management - Material Handler/Forklift Operator Generac Power Systems Employee Review

Pros

Flexible shifts available starting at 17.50

Cons

Can't keep hr staff. Can't keep floor workers. Favorites are played, so if you don't know someone you'll never get promoted. They can't keep to a single attendance policy, they just messed vacations and holidays all up. And they told us a week before Easter that it won't be paid nor allowed to work and that if we want to get paid for the day we're supposed to work but aren't getting holiday pay... We'd have to use our vacation days... Which are earned magically throughout the year. If you have an issue with anyone you work with (like threats or harassment) they have a lot of rugs to sweep things under and nothing changes.

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.
