Pros

The associates working on the floor and in the office are great. Exceptional customer focus and always willing to step up when needed.

Cons

Executive level associates are all dog-eat-dog. Happy to step on anyone's throat to get ahead. The Kohler family is entertained by this and often stokes the fire for their amusement. No one in executive leadership actually retires from Kohler.... you quit, you get fired, or you "retire" because the company tells you to
