Pros

Culture here is unlike any I've ever known. Success is celebrated and teamwork rewarded. This is indeed an obsessed environment...obsessed with being the best! I never feel like I don't have a voice or platform to succeed personally.

Cons

Petty complaints but usually from "non-big-picture" people who only care about how something affects them directly rather than how it affects everyone in the organization. Those same people expect to do the minimum but be rewarded for exceeding expectations. When that doesn't happen or they don't get their way, the negative, biting comments and reviews ensue. But Milwaukee continues to grow and evolve. If you're not on board, you'll be left behind with on one to blame but yourself.

Pros

The companies success and growth over the years has translated into the success and growth of not only my career but many around me. Milwaukee expects employees to go above and beyond which can make this culture difficult to some, but rewards employees greatly for commitment as well as performance.

Cons

We are a mid-size company that was a small company and is heading into "large scale" company territory. The executive team has a lot of opportunities to continue the training and empowerment of middle management to start making more decisions for the business. It can sometimes slow progress having to run decisions through multiple different executive stakeholders.
