Premier Automation

I started at Premier Automation as a marketing intern and was offered a full-time position after graduation. The transition has been smooth, and I’ve already learned and grown a lot in a short amount of time.

The company culture is collaborative, welcoming, and focused on making employees feel included. From sports leagues and food trucks to appreciation lunches and the annual fish fry, there’s a real effort to build a positive environment beyond just day-to-day work.

Premier truly values its people, and that shows in how they support both personal and professional development. It’s been a great place to start my career, and I’m glad to be part of the team.

I layout, install and wire up electrical devices on sub panels.  I have been there for over 3 years now and have learned anything from basic bus installation to installing and wiring AC/DC drives and also PLC's.  My co-workers are all pretty much friendly but they are like a close knit family.  I only work with five other people on a daily basis so our teamwork is very strong.  The hardest part of my job is the tediousness of every job.  Everything has to be perfect so I have learned extreme patience.  Everyday is enjoyable in my mind except for the occasional "off" day.

They say you work 4 x10hr days but thats a rariety, its usually a mandatory 50 hrs and more if you want it and if you don't then your treated like your useless. The employees there are good people and most are easy to work with. Supervisors put themselves up on pedestals. Benfits are good. Pay needs to be better considering the line of work and being expected to look for engineering mistakes. Raises are better than most places though. Overall I'm glad I'm no longer working there just never had a reasonable work/ life balance.

I currently work for Premier and absolutely love it. I have learned and continue to learn so much in my field.  Management, especially the President truly cares about the well being of each employee. As a parent, it can be stressful to manage all of life’s responsibilities. Premier has been more than accomplished, allowing me the flexibility to care for my family while devoting myself equally to my career. The culture is great and feels like a family. I hope to be with this company for many many years to come! 

I've heard bad things about them, I've personally never had an issue with them, but there are always two sides to a story, and then the truth. I did not like sharing quarters in California for the Tesla project, but it is expensive out there and makes more sense so everyone makes it to work on time. I guess if one person is late we're all late, and trust me you'll be reminded of it all day, or until someone else steals the spotlight of doing DUMB

I spent my time in an internship at Premier Automation.  I worked for the company for 360 hours and completed the internship in good standing.  I learned a different set organizational skills and the pressure of meeting a deadline. I really enjoyed working at this company and all of the co-workers were great to work with.

The CEO Bought a failing company from Northern California. 
Unfortunately  He left the former owner in charge. It was fast paced high volume retro work, on the west coast. Logistics was a little tough.
And my health, was not good at the time. Pretty tough run, for me.

Wages in the shop are weak compared to similar industry averages. Company has grown substantially over last couple years and has been very busy requiring long hours. Still wages are down.

A typical day for me involves learning from who I am shadowing at the time and getting to experience the different operations that go on daily there. I am always learning each time I work on a new project.

The two managers in charge are worthless! The clicks are strong in this place. They do a lot of stuff for you such as company picnics and free lunches to cover up the fact they pay garbage money. You have to provide pretty much all of your own tools while making garbage money. FIND OTHER EMPLOYMENT!!!!!
