Pros

Health insurance, bonuses, the usual goodies from a big company.

Cons

Diversity This company is big on diversity quotas. While I have absolutely nothing against having a diverse workplace, this is not equal opportunity, it’s equal outcome. People who know this can take advantage, leading to “untouchable” coworkers who can behave unproductively and unprofessionally with little to no recourse. Their race, gender, and/or sexual orientation can become a weapon. Training A lot of learn as you go, figure it out for yourself type deals. Lacking in standard procedures. Execution I heard the phrase “that’s Cummins” many, many times in my time at the company. And from people all the way up and down the chain of command. If an initiative is delayed 8 months for no apparent reason - that’s Cummins. If a high-profile project is poorly implemented - that’s Cummins. If people are generally behaving apathetic toward their jobs - that’s Cummins. Effective management and effective implementation of initiatives drops off drastically the further you get from corporate HQ and their core business of designing engines.

Pros

Work from home, flexibility, paternal leave policy, pension plan

Cons

Pay is low and has not kept up with inflation. Leadership is only DEI hires, and they do not seem to understand the actual work being done. They are making life miserable for employees by adding unnecessary KPI's and performance tracking to make a name for themselves within the senior leadership. No loyalty for employees, they will let you go in the blink of an eye if the business struggles.
