At a typical day at work, I get assigned a certain number of orders by my manager. Then arrange the customers' files on the company's templates. Check for bleed, correct resolution, correct dimensions, create/troubleshoot spot colors, arrange multi-page catalogs and calendars, and create proofs for customers. I answer questions customer service may have about questions. When files are mssing, the collecting department calls and I find or redo the orders for them. Also, I assign orders for other employees when they ask or if my manager is not present. A high attention to detail is necessary.

Working here has taught me pretty much everything about the pre-press side of printing. Occasionally learn or discover some tips and tricks about adobe products and mac features.

Management micromanages about the number of orders worked on, looks for who to blame on mistakes, and occasionally makes jokes.

The hardest part is to work fast enough to satisfy upper management without sacrificing accuracy.

The best part of the job is getting to no fellow employees and the rare "thank you" email from customers.

It was a very impressive company to work for overall.  Clean, Safe, healthy environment.  I enjoyed my time at GotPrint and the people were friendly.  Working with the management team was always interesting and challenging.  All around a good team to work with,  I'm not sure why management here gets bashed on by most.  The structure I thought was well placed and tackling each issue no matter how big or small was never perfect but dealt with non-the less.
Overall I liked working here and would probably not put up a fight if asked to come back.  Only issue I had would have to be resolved first though..  That is correct compensation for the correct position,  or : Fair Pay....

Good job for introvert. Odd culture within department. I was strung along and jumped numerous hurdles just to get to full-time and receive benefits. We were able to listen to music, even though we weren't supposed to. If it weren't for the leniency within the department, the job wouldn't be worth the effort. The department tried to develop camaraderie through potlucks during work hours.  There weren't much options for moving to another department or advancement, even though they did advertise for positions within the company. The company doesn't offer much outside of minimum, yet they bloat their compensation. Christmas party, full-benefits for full-time employees, annual review (<$1 raise), twice/year food truck lunch (paid). My department would be perfect for introverted people. Carrying a conversation with your neighbor is odd and doesn't occur very often. Decent tools to work with (Mac, CS6).

The bulk of my printing experience has been in the newspaper industry beginning in the late 1990's. The 2007 recession took a tole on the newspaper industry which gave me the opportunity to work for four different companies in six different shops. From prepress to shipping, from floor help to management so I know print shops. 

They are not afraid to spend some money to keep things running. They schedule down time for maintenance and I have never been turned down for time off even when when I was out of PTO. Management seems to be able to keep the floor moving efficiently but don't expect them to go out of their way for you. 

Everyone gets along and your job is secure as long as you have good attendance and stay busy. Stress level is the lowest I have ever experienced in a shop and moving up seems easy enough. In 3 years I have been offered 2 cutter positions and a prepress position but I didn't want to leave 1st shift so I turned them down. 

My experience with my former employer was overwhelmingly negative due to their toxic workplace culture, where employees were routinely mistreated and undervalued. The management / owner consistently engaged in a blame game, shifting responsibility onto staff members for failures while taking credit for any successes, creating an environment of distrust and low morale. This manipulation not only stifled open communication but also led to a high turnover rate, as many employees felt demoralized and unappreciated. The lack of accountability from leadership made it clear that their priority was self-preservation over team success, ultimately harming the organization’s overall productivity and employee satisfaction.

This place is not great to work for.  Information is not adequately shared between departments, the stress level is incredibly high as you aren’t able to reach necessary departments for updates & you are in turn at the mercy of the customer who are incredibly upset (often times justified). Even if you are given updated info, many times it’s incorrect. If you receive any accolades from customers, you may receive an email documenting it, but nothing else. People are overworked & not paid nearly enough for what they are put through/experience (all departments, not just customer service as quality control is incredibly overworked too but have a really nice supervisor).  Even though there are some nice regulars, customers really do treat you exceptionally bad here. Seems management only truly cares when calls get escalated due to social media/BBB complaints.

Training wasn't efficient and often threw you on your own to fast and early. Management showed favoritism and the same rules didn't apply to everyone. There was constant issues and harassment by other employees and management would hardly do anything to stop it from happening. And it made for a toxic work environment. The job was very high schoolish and people were unfriendly.  You had great job security because you wouldn't get fired for anything. Work hours were very regular and set. Always had work. Treated hard working employees badly and constantly praised workers that were very subpar and constantly missed. In 10 years, it wasnt always like this but got much worse over the years and became to toxic environment that it is now. Hopefully this helps...

I have worked for this company for over 10 years. They let me go during Covid without any appreciation package or a check.  There is basically no strategy and management skills in this company. They kept people that work slow and complain every time and let good people that would do job for 3 people go. 
Upper management has no logic and most departments are managed poorly. The only good thing about this place was the insurance and good coworkers. There are so many good printing companies out there that will respect you as an employee and they will appreciate your hard work. Go find those places. 
This company has no value nor respect for good, hard worker employees.No good raise or compensation. 
It's very sad but TRUE!!!!!!

This is a great company to work for. I was in customer service, the manager and assistant manager are the best leaders I have had the pleasure of working with. They actually care. I have worked other retail dead end jobs but this was a big step up. It is a family owned business and they did take care of us during the pandemic. Look if you want to work and take it seriously this is a good company to be in, if you just want to slack off it it’s not for you. They have great training and want to see you succeed. It was hard for me to leave but an opportunity came up that I couldn’t say no. If not I would happily still be working there.

It’s interesting to see negativity about this company based on some of the reviews I’ve read on here. I believe these folks must be bitter and/or left on bad terms. Been here 3 years and I love the team I work with. I started off in Customer Service and now I am in Quality Control. There IS room for growth as long as you have a great work ethic and you assert yourself. Management will acknowledge you, your hard work will not go unnoticed.
I wouldn’t say this company is perfect, but there is always room for growth and to be better and I think this company gets that.
