OK on the outside, but rotting from the inside.

Pros

Decent enough pay. Could definitely be higher considering the workload. Pretty good benefits for employee, spouse/domestic partner, and children. Hours are convenient. Employee discount is really good if you need to buy tools for yourself or family. Company-provided uniforms Company reimburses quickly for supplies or expenses Discounts on other TTI brands

Cons

Managers have no clue. Many are stuck in the "good old days" and can't seem to adapt. Company is out of touch with employees at the ground level, especially manufacturing, central repair, and the branches. They send down demands with no idea what is going on below them. Company overall seems to be constantly putting out fires while simultaneously trying to find an identity. Company is full of veteran employees that have drank gallons upon gallons of the kool-aid, but things changed, and now they're just grumpy old bullies that will eventually leave. Mostly discriminatory. Many assumptions are made regarding age, religion, skin color, sexual orientation - all of which is totally unnecessary in today's culture.

Great Product. Horrible to work for.

Pros

The company makes a great product. Really that is all.

Cons

The company will make all the kids in TTi think Milwaukee is the best of the best to work for. Milwaukee has absolutely zero culture. The senior management made up some ball of bull at their national sales meeting about what they believe the culture to be. Just so so bad my god!
