Pros

For professional/technical ranks the management is decent and most managers treat their subordinates fairly. The benefits with respect to medical, dental, vision, 401K are a little better than average. If you have a good work ethic it will be noticed and additional responsibility will be yours.

Cons

too much employee turnover and people who just "show up" and do the bare minimum to avoid being fired. Management tolerates poor employee performance (sleeping on the job, drinking right before a shift) as well as poor attitudes. Quarterly employee bonus is a farce, not paid out since Q4, 2013 however it is routinely mentioned to job candidates. Generac management purposefully anchors median compensation for nearly all positions approximately 20% below prevailing market wage,

Pros

Best thing would be the team you work with. I loved my co-workers. They also had a great lunch room.

Cons

Upper management is absolutely ridiculous. They do not take the work you do into consideration. They push their employees hard just to get their bonus. They claim to be a family oriented company and they are not. Do not let them fool you. They would rather work you to death than to care for your own children when something is wrong. The pay is terrible. Pay at generac is about 2% under the normal rate of pay that you would get with a different company.
