Group O Employer Reviews

The day is pretty typical unless something goes wrong then it is all hands on deck drop what you are doing. The training is a joke because it is nonexsistant. Management is all about getting on their good side or they will make you want to quit. Co-workers are hard working and some can be dependable. The hardest part about the job is not getting bored – more... from the some old routine day in and day out. The part I like most about this job is the fact that I have job security since I am the only one who knows how to handle some functions and reports. – less

These people don't like to promote from within. That alone will me the job that much more stressful.

I love my managers and it was a nice place to work just try not to go through a temp agency.

Providing world class customer service to people is not always appreciated.

we can talk in person ... and there not doing so good and i rather not be with a job

The main thing about Group O is that if you work hard and you will work hard, you can succeed

Do my best to complete the task at hand in a timely and efficient manner. We work together to achieve a product that meets or exceeds customer specifications. The Hardest part is being short handed. I learned how to operate a machine .The best time is the last buzzer of the day

Fast paced environment
Management lacks leadership and actual management skills

This is a really good company to work for. Everyone is great to work with. Managment goes out of its way to help.

Maintance chech of forklift. Taking material out of tubs, racks, or crates, and placing them into locations for next day build of tractors.
Management was ok, but has alot of flaws. My co-workers and I all have the same prospective of what's going on with the company. I disliked having to do lift severly heavy parts without help. I enjoyed the atmosphere – more... of such a large building and knowing where everything is suppose to go. – less

When the announcement was made that our division would be closing, we were given several weeks to find other employment. Some employees were hired on in other departments and jobs were created and posted to internal candidates whenever possible.

Group o is a fun production place. Moving fast . Using scaner to scan bar code its picking an packing

A typical day at Group O is ordinary, I worked second shift so therefore I was there from afternoon til almost midnight, I spend most of my time picking from tickets or other words known as stores and pick whatever products that are needed for that store to be sent out. After done picking, you would pack the items, but mainly I have done totes. But – more... if whatever don't fit into the totes you have to box them up. The totes can't be over 60 pounds because as they told us wherever that the items are shipped to, there are more petite people who would be carrying the totes. It was always heaviest to lightest it was a 5x3 totes and six stacks high. Whenever the height limit has been reached I would go tape around the skid two times so who ever comes and lift it and weighs it wouldn't have to worry about the security of the skid. And if I am done with my project I move onto something else that they may have in hand. The management there was alright, but it wasn't really settled because they had just re-located into a new area. I would say, they did what they could but for the lack of communication skills that they have for me, I personally did not like it. I hate the fact that sometimes you have to be your own boss there, so you end up doing something that you weren't supposed to do, but again it wasn't your fault also because, they didn't tell you rather you could or could not do so. If I am asking you a question and directly looking you in the eyes and all you do stare at the floor and ignore me of course it's going to make me feel awkward, who would not feel like that it really ticked me off if the person I am asking the question to heard me but chose to walk away(!). My co-workers were awesome always optimistic, worthy, dedicated and content with a sense of humor. I had tons of fun there with them, we were like a little family. The hardest part of the job is that on every fourth day of the week they always rushed the items that are need to be shipped out. Yet they wait until our second shift crew to come and finish it for them. I hate how they never once acknowledge our hard work. The most enjoyable part of the job was after all that hard work, and receiving that paycheck and being able to help your parents out on bills and put clothes on your siblings back is the most enjoyable part for me. – less

Underpaid and highly stressful, this job will have you walking on pins and needles trying to make everyone happy. Too many chiefs, not enough indians; for every worker you have, there are about 5 people telling you what you can and cant do what you should and shouldn't with all conflicting ideas about the job and tasks. It places responsibilities of – more... the next pay grade onto you all the way up the food chain. – less

i was not there long their pay was low with not much chance for advancement

I did enjoy this job. It was just misleading; promise to hire but it turned out to be something different. This was a big decision maker in my returning to school.

A typical day at work consist of unloading trucks, loading trucks, and moving material to designated locations. I learned at my job to be very efficient and safe while operating a forklift. I also learned alot about logistics and material handling. Management were not very trained on how to talk or train employees. My co-workers were normal people trying – more... to make a living for their families. The hardest part of my job was dealing with being disrespected and looked down upon by higher management. The most enjoyable part of my job was the thrill and satisfaction of unloading and loading all my trucks within a very reasonable time frame. – less

Depending on what location it is, they pay as little as possible, usually minimum wage. Turnover is high because of it. Fine for a temp job, but can't support yourself, much less a family on the pay. Does not matter if you are a temp or company, the pay is the same.

Paint John Deere parts, there are no typical days. Fun place to work with many daily challenges
