maintenance technician

Hoshizaki America

I have the most respect for this company and have been given so many opportunities and loved every job as I learned and excelled at every job but did not want promotion to supervisor. Love traveling to setup, work and tear down trade shows. Got great experience teaching technical service schools. Because of my technical skills and experience with technical service and customer support skills to be able to go to any situation and calm the customer and go to ant lengths to resolve issue and make customer happy. I am a very technical and self motivated worker and do not want to manage other technically skilled workers but have learned a lot about the side of management and have a greater respect for the tough descisions that have to made. I just enjoy troubleshooting, repairing, designing, building and training other techs on the how to troubleshoot the product through breaking down the sequence of operation and control or component failures.

You're literally doing the job of 3 people but only being paid like your half a person. Being that you wear so many different hats it's amazing that the place has no SOP's in place.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
My nights at Hoshizaki are kinda stressful. I have to work hard while others are having a great time socializing and carrying on like they are at the club.

The start of my experience there was amazing. Supervisor was awesome and very helpful. As time went on, he got comfortable in showing his true colors. Ignorance to line issues and employee ideas or concerns. Would make mistakes and blame said mistakes on his employees without acknowledging he did anything wrong. It’s an amazing job overall. Great benefits. Paid time off. Two bonuses a year. It has its bad stuff just like any other job. The good far outweighs the bad. You just roll with the punches as they come. My only issue is sometimes it seems that poor management choices have been made.
