      Growing But With A Long Way To Go

      Pros

      Fast paced hard working environment that will, at some point, return the amount of effort you put in back in with managerial responsibilities and leadership oppurtunities.

      Cons

      Grown far too quickly for it's own good. Understaffed and overworked, the employees are top-rate but seem to lack the understanding that they should push back when management becomes over zealous and erratic in it's decision making.

      Great brand, but that is it

      Pros

      The Milwaukee Tools brand is respected throughout the construction industry. Fun job that could be in a nice cosy office one day and out and about the next. There was some overnight travel, but very minimal. My base salary wasnt very good, but the reimbursed expenses(car, phone, office, internet, etc) were generous. Freedom to be creative in sales promotions and marketing for my accounts. Company truck was NOT decaled and there were no restrictions on normal personal use

      Cons

      They based sales goals for each month by the prior years month. Made it difficult to his the number if there was a great promotion running the prior year. No commission meant no incentive for sales growth. Medical Ins is a little pricey and not that great. Leadership Development Program brought a different sales force environment that rubbed alot of traditional distributors the wrong way.

      Pros

      -Great Brand. The respect people had for the Milwaukee brand and its tools is second to none. -An extremely fun job. -Tons of new tools to show. -I was able to get into places most people can only drive past because of the inovative new products being launched.

      Cons

      -No clear understanding on how the sales numbers were determined. -TR's are responsible to help with Senior Accounts, but those sales numbers didnt factor into our personal numbers. -No clear direction for launching new tools. A new tool would come out and that would become top priority until the next one launched and the previous tool was forgotten about
