Jackson Group Peterbilt

This is without a doubt one of the best companies I have worked for, from the team around me to management. This company will take all measures to make sure you succeed if you want to succeed. Management will take the time to talk through the issues or struggles that are impeding your success. Everyone involved in the process of selling a part to delivering the part is a crucial component of this business. It doesn't work without all the parts.
 I can not express enough the level of concern that management has for the employees, they know when you succeed they succeed and with the right drive they will push you to move beyond what you think you are capable of.
  There is so much more to say and if you are lucky enough to land a place here in JGP you will be much better off in your career and life.

I pulled all time cards daily and reported and added up time punches
I learned many facets of the light and heavy duty dealership duties
I was encouraged daily from the peers and owner of the company
my co-workers were all professional and accomplished
hardest part of this job was that it was a greasy place with potential for ruining some really nice dresses and pants suits
I love the family atmosphere we shared at the GMC shop. we were close and celebrated each others accomplishments and holidays and birthdays.

Expectations for work are pretty typical for this field. Constantly rotated my day off to where nothing could be planned for family activites. Managment did seem to check in and see how employee progress is going. Coworkers have divided the shop and made it very hard to enjoy working there or to advance in skills. Overall the work is about where it needs to be but the expectations and the enviroment made it almost impossible to walk into work with a smile.

Work to do daily was great. Leadership was terrible. Foreman has a lot of favoritism for some workers due solely to his personal preference and not work performance. Foreman has no social skills or respect for daily human rights. Complete dictatorship. Not much advancement opportunity. Placed only based on one area (i.e. engine rebuild only). Overall unsatisfying work environment. Everything would improve without current foreman in charge. No recommendation to work at Ogden facility.

This is the worst shop I have ever worked for in my career. The whole place is poorly managed and barely brings in enough revenue to keep the lights on. The management has changed hands so many times and corporate just wants the numbers to look good enough to get them by each month. Even if it means billing customers when the job isn’t done yet. I had this happen multiple times and would then have to put all my time onto another unit that wasn’t even being worked on yet. This is the shadiest company I have ever seen be in business 

I enjoyed my time at JGP because of the flexibility, however, I did not have enough to keep me busy.  They overhired and I was ultimately laid off one day after I was eligible for benefits because of lack of work.  They seem to be poor planners in general. They were very flexible with work/family balance, but the paid time off was very lacking.  HR for benefits is only available thru email,  but accommodating.  Management was supportive. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The pay scale is higher than traditional for this area.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The company fails to provide essential shop equipment to perform the jobs required. Management is not supportive of technicians.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is stressful, with severe internal conflicts and blame shifting.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Like swimming in molasses with a coach yelling at you.

I worked in Accounts Payable.  Downstairs people are friendly.  Managers at first gave no training, and expected training through osmosis.  The work load is way over the top, job security?  Growing company with not enough workers.   Scanning and CDK work was expected of all until a specialist was hired.  Specialist was not given any support for many months.  Heavy lifting over 80 lbs.  Lot of backstabbing until a new manager was hired in April 2022.  Then things began to smooth out.  Not loyal to employees.  

The people are great, trucks are awesome, never out of work. Only slows alittle in the summer months and plenty of warranty work for the dealer. Training is ok, tons of info to learn and be tested on. Most the time is "have to know it" and not learn it repairs, can be tough for some. Benefits could be better for larger company like this, no spifs for warranty time like other shops. Alot of young people trying to be master techs, is the only issue; And parts not on hand for something we do daily. Not a bad time here, just could be better overall. 

Was hired for a position, was never given training after the first week, yet expected to know everything given to me.  Attempted to reach out to upper management when I wasn't comfortable speaking to my direct manager, only to be ignored.  Fired after probation period, claiming it was a bad fit.  If you can get a niche in here, the benefits are seriously out of this world, just dont expect anyone in here to do anything to assist or help you, it's very dog eat dog
