Pros

Large company where you can try your hand at several types of work. If you want to move from engineering to try your hand at finance, go ahead! The environment there depends on which group you are in, but I'd say it's a positive environment for the most part.

Cons

-If you work at one of the satellite plants you are disconnected from corporate and at a greater risk of loosing your job if the industry takes a down turn. -Cummins uses the old GE model of rating and ranking for assessing performance. The bottom 10% of the work force will not receive an increase in pay every year.

Pros

You get paid for doing OT on weekends at the plant I work at now If you are in a shift that has less staffing you might earn more money on weekends as you will not have anyone to rotate with or less people to rotate with I am happy to have a manager who understands I have a lot of work pressure

Cons

If you are in a shift that has less staffing you will have a lot of work to do. For me the con is lots of work pressure in the shift I work. I think I do the work of atleast 2 people and sometimes even more. First shift will have people to rotate on weekends. Unfortunately 2nd shift doesn't have people to rotate with. We end up working every weekend but have same number of vacation days. People in 2nd can get there vacation days used up before other shifts. But still I would say its a good company considering I work in a manufacturing facility.
