Pros
Milwaukee Tool is truly an incredible company. It was obvious to me on day one why the company has seen tremendous growth -- a never settle mentality, profound investment in not just products and technology, but its employees and facilities, and the the value it puts on its team members. There is a clear hierarchy and ample training, which helped me hit the ground running. In my last role, I was under a tremendous amount of pressure to hit the bottom line and went to bed most nights worried about my future, but here I am energized and can focus on doing the best I can and then finding ways to do even better. The communications from the executive team make me feel secure in that the company understands why other businesses have failed and how we can avoid each of those pitfalls and continue our incredible growth.
My pay upon hire was a healthy percentage above market and I have enjoyed perks such as stunning facilities, subsidized lunches, product discounts, schedule flexibility, casual work dress, and travel opportunities.
Cons
The company's rapid growth has stressed the availability of office space/parking and resulted in office sharing and moving, but I have been impressed by the company's willingness to invest in new space quickly.
