Pros

Pros really do not exist in Buehler. Co-Workers are friendly, but extremely demoralized. Safe location. Annual bonus is a turkey or steak. Benefit are good, but that is an ITW policy not Buehler. If you are in management and want to collect a huge salary and bonus, along wth doing no work this is the place for you.

Cons

This place is a Joke. When you walk in the door there is a sign that praises entrepreneurial spirit. This is an absolute lie. Do what you are told and do not go against the grain. Fear retaliation as the director of HR rules with an iron fist. They get rid of their worker bees who possess much intellectual property and replace them with overpaid management who are useless. The turnover is intense creating situations where you have up to 3 jobs to do at once. Zero reward for hard work. Very dysfunctional, especially for those who work in admin. It got to the point I would rather starve than spend another minute there. Also employees are held accountable for poor management decisions.

Pros

Buehler offers incredible technical challenges and fosters a positive, growth-oriented culture. One of the best aspects of Buehler is its inclusive and collaborative culture. There’s a strong emphasis on teamwork and open communication, where ideas are encouraged. In terms of career development, I have always felt that I have the opportunity to grow. Illinois Tool Works (ITW) has a robust framework for professional growth that is tailored to the individual. Overall, Buehler has been a fantastic place to work, grow, and innovate as an engineer. The combination of a great culture, supportive leadership, and endless opportunities for development makes this company enjoyable.

Cons

While Buehler offers a decent salary, the pay is not on par with some of the leading companies in the industry. While there are annual pay increases, they tend to be modest. If you prioritize salary as a primary factor in your career decision-making, this may be a limitation to consider.

Pros

Good knowledge colleagues that take pride in their work.

Cons

Self serving leadership that undermines the company and ITW. Compensation is on the low end. Not the lowest but not great. Communication is poor. Needs of customers are an afterthought. Opportunities for advancement, training and career development are limited.
