Pros

Kohler is a great place to work if your specialty is in art, hospitality, marketing/account management, or ceramic design and engineering. You will be given opportunities to go well above and beyond your current job role (but will not be compensated for it).

Cons

They target salaries at the median regardless of the position, but expect top-level performance and do not discourage using or pushing colleagues out of the way for personal gain. Management attitudes eventually cause employees to question themselves and their self-confidence, which makes leaving the company that much harder. The expectation is that employees will continue to grow skills and capability without a reward of additional compensation or benefits, and then those increased skills and capability become the expected normal.

Pros

There are no shortages of opportunities to expand your job skills if you are salaried. Somewhat less for hourly, but that has more to do with the union than willingness to promote. I found the union pretty easy to work with if you are willing to work with them. For the area, pay is good, though one can go to Milwaukee and make 30% more. The benefits are phenomenal.

Cons

Big,plodding organization that remains inbred in places because some long-term employees dig in their heels. The divisional management sometimes does not provide adequate guidance. I had both good and bad in that regard during my 8-year run. I would still be there had an opportunity I could not pass up not appeared.
