Pros

Somehow there are still good people here. the Waukesha facility is nice.

Cons

Toxic, toxic, toxic. Generac with suck your soul. Be prepared to be mocked openly in meetings by top executives, sworn at and called names. Asked to work extra hours and weekends to achieve unrealistic goals, only to be rewarded with no raises, bonuses, or any other form of financial compensation beyond your base pay that will most likely be below market average. A pizza party maybe 🤔

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.
