      Pros

      Overall a good company to work for. Generac has it's issues, but every company has issues. Overall a stable company to work for, decent pay for skilled positions with time, benefit package is decent...many other companies have cut on things like insurance but Generac has done well to keep it a decent benefit for the employee. Overall a good stable job.

      Cons

      Company broadcasts the importance of the employee, but needs to improve on that aspect. Good job to just come to work and do your part, not a good job if looking to advance or expect to be heard.

      Pros

      Friendly people to work with, supportive environment, recognize talent

      Cons

      Micro-management from upper management and even exec level shows lack of confidence and promotes dependency.

      Lack of Employee Appreciation

      Pros

      -Nice, recently updated facility with cafeteria -Lots of opportunity for advancement/internal promotion -Fun company picnics A lot really depends on your team/boss. My current boss is clearly rooting for me to do well and has advocated for my professional development from day 1. He allows me flexibility to pursue avenues that are of interest to me, and proposes projects that will push me outside of my comfort zone. In my previous position at the company, everything was much more regimented and coming to work was not enjoyable. We were incredibly micro-managed and it seemed like we were constantly being berated for something.

      Cons

      -Low pay -2 weeks starting vacation, don't bump up to 3 weeks until 5 years -Little flexibility with hours (depending on department), strict with attendance for some but little in the way of ramifications for those who abuse policies -No lines of open communication (varies by department)
