No Advancement

Pros

Was a great company at one time. Freedom to set own direction Newer office space Great fellow employees

Cons

Long time employees overlooked for advancement Responsibility (blame) pushed to lowest level employee while Sr. mgmnt absolves themselves of any responsibility. Secret deals, hidden agendas, lip service on advancement, fall back on "Market Value" as an excuse for low pay scale. Always looking outward for talent and ignoring the people who have helped get them there.

Salaried group

Pros

Salary good if this is all you work for.

Cons

Absolutely no job security. Management is not competent and demonstrates this by philosophy that we are all replaceable. Very high turnover in Salaried Group. Company is poor at communication, teamwork and people development. Expected to use your personal vehicle and cell phone to conduct company business. Company does not provide tools to do your job. Career advancement not related to qualifications.Company claims to be improving but does not walk the talk.

Pros

Benefits are good, insurance is affordable, coworkers are fun

Cons

Passive Aggressive Atmosphere...Will hire anyone who walks through the door which leads to horrible team building. Pay is well below the market for our area and it feels like they go out of their way to make it harder to complete our goals. Our Manager comes to our location once every 4-5 months and we don't hear from him in between. People are rewarded for doing the job they were hired for. You met goal - here's a gift card. Not You didn't make goal? How can we help you? Very High School (sometimes Middle School) atmosphere. Foul language, harrassment, confrontations between coworkers. HR does nothing, supervisor closes office door and ignores. Office physical environment is horrible. Bathrooms constantly out of order, phones drop calls, temperature impossible to regulate. Our office doesn't have a fancy cafeteria or walking trail. Jefferson is the Red Headed Step Child of Generac. Only YES MEN are promoted. if you question any procedure, policy or make suggestions for improvement you become stagnate.
