Pros

Kohler has great benefits and a real "family" spirit. I would say pay is right in line with most similar companies. As the leader in their industry, it is a relatively easy to sell their products - the name is highly respected. They have great products and a stringent hiring process which ensures only the best talent.

Cons

A very demanding company. You will earn your money here... and then some. the hours are long, but compensation is fair. Can be quite stressful at times. The usual politics is present and I have felt that they need more practical knowledge at the corporate level and fewer pencil pushers.

Pros

If you are okay supporting a business that is focused on building wealth instead of developing skills and business understanding of objectives, then you will fit right in as long as you learn two important phrases "Great idea boss" and "Yes sir, I will carry out all of your plans so you will be recognized by upper management". DON'T ROCK THE BOAT!

Cons

I have already posted a con, but noticed another con that other posts point to. I read about disappointment of no remote work anymore. Remote work is difficult; you have a hard time building collaboration, teamwork and trust in a remote situation. But as I look at myself, I am on-site and love coming to work - would rather be around my team and have a constant pulse on the culture where I can address any issues immediately. Ask yourself, other than the loss of commute time and being in the comfort of your own home - why do people prefer to work from home. Many times, it can be due to avoiding the stress and anxiety that exists at work. Now ask yourself, what would make people want to be in the office versus at home. Whether you are remote or in person, not wanting to come into the office may be a sign that you are not happy and lacking fulfillment from your current circumstances.
