Pros

It is a multinational company, and it is growing rapidly especially in the Asia (South East Asia) region It is good for graduates to begin their career in this company (America, Asia) as these regions are making $$$, so there is an opportunity to grow in the company.

Cons

Too many chiefs and lack of Indians in the company, every decision/task/project get cc around Too many managers with no balls, meaning there are managers who afraid in decision making, hence causing delay in everything. Cost savings on everything even professional development on its staff

Pros

Plenty of opportunity for professional growth and new professional experience. There are no bounds to mobility within the business. Established company with great loyalty to employees. The downturn in 2008 resulted in many layoffs, but the Kohler Family kept more than they had to. Outstanding benefits.

Cons

Pay is about 10-15% below a comparable position in Milwaukee, but within the pay range for the greater Sheboygan area. Long-term employment often leads to the inability to see any way other than the "Kohler Way". Sometimes people are promoted beyond their level of competence and not properly mentored in their position.
