Pros

Milwaukee Tool provides great opportunities for a young professional seeking to grow and learn, while also offering challenging and interesting work in a constantly evolving industry of power tools. As a young engineer, I got plenty of meaningful work and was given substantial responsibility early on. This company knows how to balance fun with production! I also frequently use the on-site gym, cafe, and cafeteria, which are great perks.

Cons

Though the company offers a competitive and cost-effective overall benefits package, it does not offer any paternity leave.

Pros

Great culture makes working enjoyable. High degree of autonomy. Most projects require working with several different areas of the company. Great benefits. Company has continued growth and great vision for the future. Company is willing to provide its employees with necessary training to improve their abilities.

Cons

Some departments have not grown as fast as others, resulting in bottlenecks. As the company becomes bigger, the bureaucracy has also increased, which has served to slow projects down at times.

Pros

I have found Milwaukee Tool to be a high energy, positive, and professional workplace. There is excellent teamwork within departments, and cross-functionally. We have strong, visionary leadership, whose strategies have resulted in significant and sustained growth. The culture is also one of transparency, candor, and empowerment. Expect to work hard and play hard. I find work-life balance very good. Excellent benefits as well.

Cons

Not every area has grown or updated at the same rate, leading to occasional bottlenecks. Not so much a con as a note: I recommend a good risk tolerance; we generally expect a lot and move quickly.
