Pros
This is a growing company taht I believe will have a promising future if you’re passionate about the overall products that were being offered to consumers. The story of how Generac was started was interesting. Good benefits offered and a wide range of departments here. Cafeteria on site was a plus. Some of my coworkers were absolutely amazing to work with and very helpful.
Kontras
The main reasons why I left were I could count of one hand how many other African American employees there were at any given time out of around 300+ employees so that made me feel that they thought AA’s are inadequate?? Also, training was absolutely unstructured. My trainer himself though always seemed under pressure but I think he did well given the tools and experience he had. Another manager was okay but I can tell she had the personality of entitlement and definitely micromanaged. I’ve seen someone get treated extremely unfairly and not equal to their peers on multiple occasions and it ignited a fire inside of me. Extremely gossipy coworkers were very annoying, I felt I couldn’t go to HR because I felt information would not be kept confidential so ultimately I made the decision that this was not where I planned on retiring from. I also had a bad experience with someone in the Payroll, extremely rude because I had a question about accessing an account.
