The Rollarcoaster of Generac

Inside sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The people within departments, willing to help you out when you need it. The pay was fair and got opportunities to travel for the job

Cons

Processes can take a long time to get something done. Thinks that they are like a small business but grew large quick and have out of date processes to achieve goals. Executives are looking out for themselves since they know they have tenure with the company
