Pretty interesting. Would have liked more detail and a bit less of the not so subtle Lance promotion. But it's Trek, so I guess it's expected.

doubt it, packing boxes there would be same as packing boxes anywhere else or doing QA, bet you'd get bored - if work wasnt cr*p they wouldnt pay you to do it

I had the good luck to visit the Trek facilities in Wisconsin a few years back and I have to agree it seemed a great place to work. There was a fleet of every model in the range and any employee could take any bike any time they liked. It lacked any sense of corporate opression and all the staff we spoke to loved working there. It probably helps that Madison and that part of Wisconsin is such a great place - uber liberal and fantastic forestry and wilderness nearby. Trek gave us a great night out as well even though it wasn't an official visit, we were just in Chicago on hols and drove up there.
