Pros

-Great place to get started -Even with unrealistic goals, relatively low pressure environment -Rarely micromanaged -Industry "leader" in terms of brand recognition -If you're a manger who prefers power to pay, come and get it

Cons

-Way too many layers, they're more of a marketing firm than manufacturing -Limited growth opportunity unless you are willing to move to BFE -Consolidated many mid-level management positions -Terrible pay -Some of the promotions were laughable

Pros

Large multinational company with a good reputation. Good benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401k with match, pension. Privately held with over 80% of profit reinvested in the company.

Cons

Bad location: the Village of Kohler is only 2,000 people, Sheboygan is only 50,000. Bad location if you are young. If you are married with kids it is a pretty good place. Although the benefits are good, actual pay is below average in most positions.
