Pros

Good Company benefits decent pay.

Cons

Working at Cummins if you are inexperienced, shut your mouth, obedient and could care less about your job or customers then you will make it big time here! Management will not hire you if you are experienced, knowledgeable, dedicated, and care about your customers/job. I have been told by my management not to apply for jobs that they will pick the job for me and come to me when it is time. If you disobey and go ahead and apply you will not get the job (hint)! Also, they tell you to apply for jobs and then get mad at you and turn around and tell you not to apply. (Very wishy washy) I would file an ethics complaint but does not good if the person you are complaining about has family on the board that handles the ethics complaints. Another thing if you are a woman working in this male dominated environment good luck. Women are treated like underdogs and some of the women just accept it. Then there is the case where you have older workers with great experience and they never get promoted. Cummins preaches diversity just not at our location apparently. Very sad to the company has decent pay and benefits but managements inexperience is what is bringing this company down. Like previously stated if you don’t show your experience and keep quiet then you may have a fighting chance here. Good luck!

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.
