Beware of HR practices

Pros

Strong culture of respecting employees, a truly global company. Have worked for Cummins for more than 10 years and have enjoyed increasing responsibility roles .

Cons

On treatment of other investigations; the assumption is that the employees is guilty. There is very little opportunity to defend your position . If another employee has something against you; he can elaborate a case against you freely with no objective validation by HR. Also after a decision is made; the employee is treated like a criminal and career ruined for a long period of time US Locations are also not very appealing

Pros

Most jobs at Cummins can be enjoyable... you just have to find the one that is right for you. I truly enjoy my job. That said, the Cons outweigh the Pros.

Cons

Poor work/life balance - Company claims this is important, but they don't believe it. The Company is always #1... your family can come later. Pathetic compensation package - Both pay and health insurance are terrible VERY Political - It's like being in High School all over again; the popular "kids" will do very well, otherwise don't expect to make it very far in the company Shallow promises - Management will say anything to keep you happy and working hard, but they never come through on their end of the bargin

Too bad the emphasis isn't on actual performance and quality.

Pros

Lots of different opportunities in a variety of facets- engine size, application, etc.

Cons

Yearly ranking that is based more on who you know and how much you suck up rather than how good of a job you actually do.
