Pros

The Nashville location is very nice. Many co-workers are smart and pleasant to work with.

Cons

This company had revenues of $1B in 2007. Following a dramatic reduction during the recession it is almost back to pre-recession revenue levels. On the surface it looks like a recovery until you consider competitors have grown dramatically and taken market share. Cummins Filtration is falling behind because there is no growth strategy. Buying Cummins distributors and CMI share repurchases is not a growth strategy, it's an investor enrichment strategy. So, maybe own shares of Cummins - but don't work there. Things you need to know: - Strategy changes every 6-9 months - Poor decisions are made - such as multi-year pursuit of mining markets during a record commodity downturn - Failure to address quality of production at factories - Failure to address ineffective and unethical top managers - Expect a layoff every couple of years Oh - if you're a god fearing white male good luck! Unlike the Women, Asian, African, Latin American, Gay, etc... you have no affinity group to join. They prefer you walk on egg shells.

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.
