Hansen Signs

Working at Hansen Signs has been a really rewarding experience, especially if you enjoy a hands-on environment where no two days are the same.

The team is collaborative and approachable, and there’s a strong sense of everyone working together to get things done. You’re trusted to take ownership of your work, and at the same time, there’s always support when you need it. It’s a great place to build confidence, especially if you’re someone who likes problem-solving and staying organized in a fast-paced setting.

The work itself can be dynamic and sometimes challenging, but that’s also where a lot of the growth comes from. You learn quickly, you get exposure to different aspects of projects, and you’re constantly improving your communication and coordination skills.

Overall, it’s a solid environment for someone who is proactive, team-oriented, and looking to grow both professionally and personally.

A typical day started at 7:30 a.m. with a team meeting, where daily tasks were discussed. However, the expectations for what needed to be completed by the end of the day were often not communicated until after lunch, which made planning difficult. This lack of clear direction was a consistent issue. I don’t feel that I learned anything positive or useful for my future from this role, as most of the work was repetitive and offered little opportunity for growth.

The workplace culture itself was decent, and the people I worked with were friendly and easy to get along with. Management was generally fine, but the owner frequently monitored employees through the cameras around the building, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere. Even brief conversations would result in being told to get back to work. The hardest part of the job was not receiving any breaks other than a 30-minute lunch, something that was never mentioned during the interview.

Everyone is very invested in your success. From the moment you are hired, the onboarding is very thorough and they make sure you are confident to do your job. There are monthly employee development meetings to ensure the goals are aligned and that you are still happy within your role, as well as a good coaching program. All departments are extremely friendly, and make sure that you feel welcome from the start. They will make sure to provide you with the necessary resources to do well in your job, and the expectation is that you deliver results within your metrics and work on improving your own skills to succeed. There is a big focus on personal development, and they provide a lot of support to help you in your professional growth. 

A typical day at work is well structured and keeps me engaged with a variety of tasks. I have learned a lot, especially about processes, attention to detail, and how different departments work together. Management is approachable and supportive, and the workplace culture is collaborative and respectful. The hardest part of the job can be managing multiple priorities at the same time, but this has also helped me grow professionally. The most enjoyable part is working with a helpful team and feeling trusted and valued in my role.

A typical day was fast-paced with shifting priorities and little clarity. While I gained some insight into the signage industry, there was limited opportunity for proper training or growth. Management often lacked clear direction and follow-through, which made expectations feel inconsistent. The workplace culture was strained—communication could be better, and morale seemed low across teams. The hardest part was navigating unclear processes while trying to meet unrealistic timelines. The most enjoyable part was collaborating with a few genuinely supportive coworkers.

Hansen Signs has an incredible team of people from the front end office, to the shop floor, to the guys on the road. Everyone is very supportive and encouraging. Some of the jobs you get to work on are very custom and unbelievably cool, it is always very rewarding to see the end results. The owner provides great leadership and always encourages the team to embrace a challenge, and always provide guidance to overcome the challenges. He has an open door policy and cares about what you have to say. It is an awesome place to work!

Hansen signs is a growing company with a big ambition to progress and build strong partnerships and to  ensure a better position in the market. 
This vision is supported by its strong team and its wiliness of growth and improvement but also faces a lot of challenges to ensure a better quality and customer satisfaction standards.

Long hours. You must perform at 150% all day. You a talked down to by the owner. Morale is at an all time low throughout the company. Very high employee turn around. All senior staff has left. People are not valued by the owner, only the pennies per minute you can produce. Poor design, quality and structural safety as the senior designer and engineer are gone. There is no more good experienced people on the company. 

Working at Hansen Signs was a solid overall experience. The work itself was interesting and hands-on, especially for anyone looking to build skills in the sign and graphics industry. The team environment was generally supportive, and there was a good sense of pride in the finished products. Like many smaller companies, processes and workload could be inconsistent at times, but it provided good exposure to different aspects of the business. Overall, a great place to work.
