Generac Power Systems reviews

Pay sucks. People are being hired at the rate that current employees are making, but current employees don't get a raise to compensate for the new employees. They are not family friendly as they claim to be. I spend more time at work than I do with my family. Had to quit college because of the long hours. Can't make ends meet with what they pay you. Management is horrible, people come and go like crazy. They lie about the bonuses every quarter. Been there over 5 years and haven't seen one in 3 years. God forbid you have health issues, they just laugh in your face and make you work even more or try to get you to quit. HR is useless, always loosing important paperwork and then threaten to fire you if you don't produce it. They expect you to work in really hot weather or when it is so cold your fingers are numb. Employees are actually wearing winter coats, hats and gloves just to stay warm.

Lots of turnover, it's embarrassing. Changed supervisor 4 times in 5 years. Once your on payroll don't expect your salary to keep up. Negotiate high start otherwise you'll soon be below and the only way is to find another job. No advancement opportunities, especially in technology. Don't fall for the profit sharing bonus in lieu of pay scam. If they have too many openings they boost the bonuses 12 months before they launch a big career fair then they brag about the payouts. Once they have the headcount quotas met the bonus disappear. HR isn't forthcoming about this.
