GENCO Employer Reviews

High management is not following the core value of the corporation and communicating info about the disrespect of core value to your superior may cost you your job.

Losts of internal unwriten politics to beware of.

Sadly, this is an ordinary place with big communication problems.

Installations are less than 5 years old. Opening of the Distribution – more... Center in 2008. Makes that part easier.

Enormous turn over of employees and more or less up to date training system.

Must not meet with higher hiarchy alone in case of discontentment. – less

I would personally not recommend working here for the amount of pay they were offering. They hassled you to work fast, but the cargo was over 100lbs each and the team was very understaffed...

After working at the Genco in Calgary, AB, CAN. the benefits were great- extra days off, a place that really gives you the benefit of the doubt! the hours are reasonable- but they keep changing them slightly... the managers were pretty good- it seemed like when you had something to say- they would listen!! WARNING: don't go to the HR/Teammate services- – more... you will get snarled or yelled at... very unproffessional and rude in that office! – less

GREAT PLACE TO WORK.
WAS THERE FOR 5 YEARS,
GENCO LOST CONTRACTS, BECAUSE OF RESECTION .
I WAS ONE OF THE LAST TO GO.

My typical day at work began with stretches and a warm up. This was followed by getting orders from my supervisor. Once orders were obtained the hard part of the job began. typically I would be Given bulk or heavy orders including large company style printers. I would process these printers and ready them for loading on an outbound container. The management – more... was reasonable with their demands for any given day. The co workers were nice enough and fairly efficient at completing assigned tasks – less

While working at Genco, time management and attentiveness have become a crucial part of my everyday. Neither the teammates, team leaders, nor supervisors are above helping when it is needed.

I would use a Reach Truck to pull out the product in the racks. I would also take the product from the lanes and store them in the racks until the product was needed to fill an order for the customer. I learned how to work in a fast paced warehouse. The hardest part of my job was trying to fill an order when we ran out of the product in the warehouse – more... or when the product was damaged in a location and we had to get it down from the racks safely. The most enjoyable part of the job was driving all the machines. I have a lot of experience with a variety of machines and I enjoy working with them to get the job done in a timely manner. – less

It's pretty much an well rounded place to work. Very clean, well explained job description, safe environment to work in and respectful supervisors. easy to get along with workers

it was wonderful at the beginning but then management got really horrible

Great management and also benifits. Great pay and flexability.

Very hot working conditions, working using forklifts in warehouse no fans in warehouse no where

One of the lowest paying places in Humbolt Industrial Park. The management on my shift was pretty great, but was obviously lacking on other shifts. They do promote from within usually, but they often pick the dumbest person possible for the positions. Impossible to get straight answers about anything from Human Resources, and when you do get an answer – more... they are often wrong. Instituted a "mandatory overtime" policy a few months after I started. I and many other people had payroll mistakes quite often, some of which HAVE STILL NOT BEEN CORRECTED MONTHS LATER. Nothing quite like being underpaid and not being sure week by week if your paycheck will be $200 short on top of it.

Very hard to recommend this place to anyone, but sometimes you just need to take a job and keep your mouth shut until something better comes along. – less

When I was working at Genco, it was one of the best experiences that ive ever had in a job. I learned about inventory control and how to lead a shift of about 15 people. the hardest part of the job was the long hours but the most enjoyable part was working around different kinds of people that all got along to make that one goal.

i usually unloaded about 4-7 semi trucks daily along with my team of other employees and i was taught how to safely unload trailers.my co-workers where very enjoyable to be around. they always made you feel comfortable at work. the hardest part of the job was unloading trucks during the winter time at a fast pace while also having a time limit. for – more... me the most enjoyable part of the day was the end of the day when we finished all our trucks for the day on time and our jobs where completed. – less

Deteriorating work environment. Poor teamwork. Departments don't communicate well. Low accountability. Future profitability is questionable.

Would not like to write a review about this company. I would not recommend it .

small work place but easy people to work with. not very organized but the management was very nice

The GTS business segment of Genco is strictly bottom line driven, which is generally not good for front line teammates.

This job was very helpful and resourceful. The staff were fair and helpful.

Prepared reports with manager's numbers used. When they were questioned about "Cooking the Books" blame was put on the employee and fired. Unfair treatment to that person. I watched this happen to several other employees with similar results. Watch your back! Employees are responsible for management's screw-ups!
