Pros
I've built my career at Milwaukee Tool in challenging engineering roles for just over 20 years. Compensation and benefits are good, I've never found a good reason to move on. I've always had opportunity to advance my career and continue to learn. Especially over the past 10 years, the aggressive growth and furious pace of new product development have been exciting to be a part of. I can't say enough about the unique culture here. Milwaukee management takes the time to recognize our accomplishments and pay it forward. For example, they rewarded us with an impressive workout facility after delivering a key strategic initiative. Milwaukee has been very profitable, and the best part about that is we continue to invest in key technology to drive innovation. As an engineer, that means new toys to play with ;) We have milestone celebrations where the whole campus shuts down, we bring in food and beverages, and the company band plays. Other fun perks include Brewers and Bucks games, team building events, annual bowling tournament, annual golf outing, summer picnic, and many more. I really enjoy the youth that has been injected into our culture. Mentoring bright young engineers fresh out of college has been very rewarding for me. Personally, the best part about working at Milwaukee is our reputation. When I am out in social situations, I always ask what people do for a living. I listen to their story and I can't wait to tell them that I work for Milwaukee Tool. Almost every time they know the company, love the product, and conversation takes off from there. I am truly proud to be part of an such an awesome company and culture.
Cons
Growth is a good problem to have. We've had to work around building expansions, parking lot expansions, etc...
