Pros

Management supports employee development and encourages thinking outside the box. Schedule can be flexible if needed. Salary and benefits are competitive for area.

Cons

Best to take new skills and training to another company. Little opportunity for internal promotion. Micromanagement of travel and spend. HR is ineffective regarding handling of employee/management differences.

Pros

Kohler has allowed me to switch careers and still stay at Kohler. Note that I had to take the initiative, but for those who do, doors become open.

Cons

Capital appropriations require many approvals to proceed. The hiring process is VERY slow, as a number of approvals are required AFTER a candidate is verbally offered a position. Many manufacturing processes remain very manual. Many reporting processes remain Excel-based, or worse, paper based.
