Pros

Employee benefits are good. The people I worked with I enjoyed working with and the communications between locations in the states were improving.

Cons

There were too many persons in management and not enough workers to do the actual work. Management I felt worried too much about their own bonuses.

Pros

Kärcher is a family owned business headquartered in Germany. They are dedicated to quality, and have a high regard for employees, education and sound business principles. This combination results in high profits and a secure work environment.

Cons

Perhaps their subsidiaries are too far away from the heart of the company, and the remote leaders do not always understand and/or conform to the culture at the top. It appears at times that there are some who are only interested in their own success, or in the success of their location, which can be harmful to outlying plants and personnel.
