Pros

It pays the bills. For now. The Company has a strong name. I believe in the USA, employees are well considered.

Cons

A lot of frustration due to complexity for doing anything. IT has too many stakeholders for taking any actions that we are too slow to react. Paid in Sterling but having living expenses indexed on the Euro makes a salary reduction of 50 %, The orderboard wants to increase , but decisison are made to deliver them at teh end of year , which contains more and more uncertainities. This likely to to end in non orders or cancellations if we wait too long. People were feeling left aside in Kent before the situation turned down. Employee moral was low. The difficulty in this situation is tah company shall also focus on how well they will end the curve. When economy will kick in again , companies that woould have managed more carefully will be able to ramp up quicker than others and will take marketshare... If they have the right people.

Pros

Moderate work load. Decent compensation. Profit sharing

Cons

Very bad performance review system. Cummins uses a bottom 10% separation policy. Exempt Employees get ranked based on the degree of his/her manager's political horsepower and/or relations with the manager. This can be very discouraging.

Pros

Great place to work. They are flexible with time off if needed. Knowledge sharing is abundant which is good in such a fast pace environment. If your performance is good you will be rewarded for it. Overall i would say that it is great place to work.

Cons

Just the typical "corporate" things that go with a large company.
