Pros

It's a job! There are some great and fun co workers on the production floor that really are great people.

Cons

There seems to by way too much propaganda going around from individuals that have been there for several years out on the floor. They bully team members and run to the supervisors with each and every complaint or tattle. They over work their employees and do not compensate them properly. Their raises come in at a whopping 1%-2.5%.. Which doesn't amount to much every year. Less than a quarter a year doesn't get you far. The insurance is outrageous. The monthly company meeting are misleading. They always claim to win this award and that award and be making millions, although the production staff unfortunately doesn't see any of it. They seem to be firing people left and right and they don't even spend any time on the floor themselves

Gamber-Johnson is committed to being a destination employer. Our Joyful Growth events promote social interaction between associates at all levels. Myself and a number of office staff do work on the shop floor periodically during spikes in demand (I personally average at least once per year). Our raises are performance based and reflective of the labor market. For confidentiality reasons, I will not publish our exact average wage increases over the last several years but they have far exceeded the 1-2.5% quoted here. Wage data from the state and region are reviewed annually to check Gamber's compensation levels against the market. We strive to be competitive with our compensation and benefits. Over the last three years, Gamber has reinvested well over $6 million back into the business. It has increased vacation time. Added a child care benefit. Increased 401k match. Increased bonuses paid (which tie to the company's profitability = everyone profits together). Improved health benefits offered by adding an HSA option with a generous company contribution. All benefits are reviewed at least annually and adjusted as needed. Executive management closely reviews the input from the annual associate survey and associate suggestions, and appropriate actions are taken in response to that input. Bottom line - we value all of our associates and back that up with many examples of how we show that appreciation. We have an open door policy, suggestion box, associate survey and monthly company meetings which provide ample opportunities to discuss concerns for associates who choose to do so - and many do.

Not a great place to work.

Pros

Nice co-workers and the company seems to be doing really well financially.

Cons

Pay isn't competitive for any position in the company. Monthly meetings where management talks about how much money the company has made and how well the company is doing but when it comes to sharing the profit, employees get a 2.5% annual raise. Every year the pay increases and bonuses get worse. 5% to a 2.5% raise even though job responsibilities and expectations have increased and the company continues to grow. Gamber doesn't keep up with the cost of living so over time you start to realize you're making less money than you were when you started. From production workers to office staff, people working at Gamber feel like they are not well compensated. Benefits aren't good either. Only 2 weeks vacation, bad insurance coverage, and the building is old so there aren't any nice amenities like an upgraded break room. There is a foosball table, 3 fridges, and a few microwaves in the break room, and one t.v. that loudly plays local news or soap operas. Only one break room so there is no privacy if you need to make a phone call or need a quiet spot.

We are sorry that you feel this way. We have an open door policy and are more than happy to discuss your concerns. We are committed to making Gamber-Johnson a great place to work and have made a great many improvements to benefits since becoming a standalone company. Our confidential associate surveys show that the vast majority our team do not share your feelings. Since the buyout, Gamber has added an HSA option to health insurance, free childcare reimbursement, charitable donation matches, a mini-gym, more break room space, free Netflix or Hulu subscriptions and much more. Gamber strives to be as competitive as possible with wages and benefits. We monitor this closely every year. Wage increases are based on monitoring of the market, COLA and individual performance. Declining increases may be an indication of under-performance and are not the result of management cutbacks relative to COLA. Bonuses have been paid at maximum levels for the past three years. We are growing steadily. Gamber is a great place to work and be part of a great team.
