Pros

Very knowledgeable staff with a love of Wisconsin History.

Cons

Staff are held back from being creative and larger teams decide exhibits and programming instead of the staff with the most subject matter knowledge. Management turns a blind eye to the high turn-over. High salaries at the executive level and ego-centric culture.

Pros

Had some of the best years of my life working at Old World Wisconsin during my college summers. Fun and engaging working environment, coworkers are fantastic, friendly vibes, very genuine people. Wonderfully low pressure - as long as you do the best you can do, are genuine, and have a good heart, you'll do well at Old World Wisconsin. Supervisors treat staff well and respectfully.

Cons

Pay is limited (understandable), Hours per week can be erratic.
