Not a good place to work for professional hires

Pros

You will receive allot of opportunity to work on projects and they give you move than enough work to handle. If you want a project they will give it to you no matter what. Cummins give you a chance to develop different processes to make a positive impact. Great company for college hires.

Cons

Columbus, IN is not a desirable city. The only locations as of now are: Memphis, TN; Columbus, Nashville, TN and SC. If you are a professional hire, I would suggest you don't work at Cummins. If you have a job stay where you are. The buildings are very poor and dirty, their IT support is not the best; you would think an American company would have IT support in the US but it's offshore. Management is shady. It’s very difficult to get things done. Poor training and development of employees. Hard to get the tools you need to get your job done. Everyone is over worked and I mean over worked. There is allot of turn over due to treatment of others, locale, management style and poor working environment. Hard to trust management. I recommend to other potential canadites, weigh all opts before moving to IN.....

Pros

Cummins has very good database of engineering standard and Product data management system. For new engineer, these standards are holy bible to learn from.

Cons

Of course , it's Cummins Performance management system and forced ranking. The system is total BS Too much emphasis on community service, heart walk , united way, HPI. you know what I mean. your color , race will be good for company you when times are good. and they will be reason for layoff when times are like this. There are many "3" still with Cummins even after laying off 22% of US workforce.

Lots of Fake Reviews on Here

Pros

The work is challenging, the people at the working level are mostly great to work with

Cons

Notice all the short 5 star reviews on here lately, they’re trying to flush out employee reviews regarding the recent mass firings (2k exempt) followed by 6 months of mandatory pay cuts. Hardly anyone I know approves of Tom L and his staff, they only have Wall Street and their own pockets (think stock options) in mind. Yet the CEO has a 4 star approval rating? Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to put two and two together. Once the market comes back, there will be a massive loss of talent within Cummins as high performers are just waiting for their chance to get out.
