Pros

Flexibility to work the hours I want to for the most part. Good benefits for the family. Friendly co-workers and good coffee during meetings.

Cons

Really early starts sometimes at 5am. Responding to jobsite emergencies frequently. Way too much paperwork and micromanagement. No straight answers from management when things go wrong. Wearing and driving red. No opportunity for top performers to make uncapped income. Limited career mobility unless you want to move to BFE.

Pros

Most of the people who don't like working for Hilti and complain about not being promoted are the employees who don't really strive to the best they can be.. But show me one company in which no one thinks no one thinks they didn't deserve a promotion over someone else. I started with company 4 years ago with an HS diploma. I have since finished my degree (Hilti paid for almost all of it) and I have been promoted 4 times in the 4 years. If you work hard you can go places I hear people complain about how things are run and those people. don't do anything about it. Hilti has only laid off about 30 people in the worst construction environment ever. Our competitors add up to 70,000 lay offs. They still give raises and trips to top performers. Hilti had its worst year ever. I bet its very hard to find an employee that didn't receive a bonus

Cons

Hilti does not do the best in terms of salary. Salary can have a large range in any given position. Limited leadership positions

Pros

You will get a chance to be in the field vs. being stuck in an office. Hilti pays for great RED shirts.

Cons

The Pay at Hilti is VERY LOW and management seems to not care about keeping people for the long haul.
