Pros

I enjoy the very strong teamwork at Milwaukee. Regardless if work is going seamlessly or there are challenges, I can depend on my peers to help me overcome all issues with open arms. I get the opportunity daily to interface with coworkers that are at the top of their game regardless of department.

Cons

Embrace that we are getting bigger and continue to empower younger leaders.

Pros

Passionate leaders, fast pace, innovative products, best in class performance, competitive, great training program, can move anywhere you want, several different channels and departments, open door policy with executive leadership and excellent benefits.

Cons

Moving is a must unless you get to a director or above role, then they stay at that role for a long time. High turnover - a company moving this fast is not for everyone.

Pros

Great work environment and good people. The products are awesome and you receive a nice employee discount. Good benefits - Health and life insurance, 401K with matching, on site gym in Brookfield. Company has been growing at a decent amount year over year for at least the last 5 years. On site cafeteria has good food and average prices. Most people will receive a company paid cell phone and laptop. Most people are very passionate about their jobs and the company/products.

Cons

The office is getting very full in Brookfield. Most people have less work space than they used to. It can be hard to find a parking spot and people park all over where there aren't spots designated. The review and compensation process is not the best. Most people receive cost of living increases even with a stellar review. Even with a promotion it can be hard to get paid fairly like you would if you took a job at another company. In all fairness, some people are paid very well, but it's often not easy or possible to catch up if you are underpaid.
