Pros

Great first job for new graduates. Job security is one of the most attractive benefits. Friendly work atmosphere within a satellite office and when dealing with the global organization.

Cons

No career growth planning set for employees; the skeleton for a proper one is in place but not used adequately. Quite constricted by the parent company, Caterpillar.
