Lot's of opportunity for career progression within the company. Even with the poor economy CAT is still having record quarters. You can go all over the world with CAT. If you want to try diffent jobs there is always opportunity to change your career path if you want to.

Cons

Some of the locations aren't the most glamorous. Most of the facilities are in Illinois.

Pros

Proud of the products we create, it's very fulfilling to work at a company respected worldwide.

Cons

Crappy location. Peoria, IL is not the best place to live, lots of crime and small town mentality. Cat uses this to pay lower than average salaries due to no competition in the area.
