Pros

The Ariens Company preaches - and lives - its core values of honesty, respectfulness, fairness, keeping our commitments and encouraging intellectual curiosity. This is a fast-paced work environment, but people are supportive from the very top down. It's easy to feel like one of the family at Ariens. The expectations are high, but the level of respect is also high. Although this company has been around for 80 years, it feels like a fresh, new, ambitious operation. There are many opportunities to make positive changes, and those changes will be appreciated.

Cons

Sure, everyone may say that the city of Brillion is off the beaten path, but it's only a half hour from the Appleton and the Green Bay metropolitan areas, and the city has a real small-town charm.

Pros

Great experience to build your resume, mostly due to a lack of clear role definitions and being asked to do tasks outside of your scope of work. The engineering department is full of dedicated workers just trying to survive the whims of the Ariens children.

Cons

"Be Honest" - Upper management lies and intentionally misleads employees "Be Fair" - There are huge discrepancies in pay and responsibilities for the same job titles "Respect the individual" - Long hours and "unspoken expectations" make you feel like a number that's only as good as the amount of slop you can deliver "Encourage intellectual curiosity" - There was never anytime to try anything new or come up with multiple solutions let alone do anything innovative.
