Exciting Fast-Paced Environment

Pros

Have been working as an Engineer for 2 years at Milwaukee Tool. I enjoy the fast-paced environment, I never find myself bored or looking for something to do. Milwaukee Tool projects also involve a lot of cutting edge technology in the industry I would not have initially expected when joining, but was pleasantly surprised to discover. There are also a lot of opportunities for development and growth. It is a great culture and I enjoy being around the people I work with.

Cons

Everyone has a very strong work ethic which can sometimes cause us to work longer hours. It can be a little more difficult to keep a good work-life balance but if you are diligent you can make it work.
