Pros

Its ok company with lot of laid back mentality among senior employers. Good for someone who doesn't like change and being challenged.

Cons

Conservative company and does not challenge the employees enough to excel. Not a risk taker when it comes to leading new technology.

Most Anti-Immigrant company

Pros

Benefits, laziness, talk your way to get promoted.

Cons

Most anti-immigrant company. Old-white boys company. Boasts about diversity etc, but thats all fake. If you are an immigrant you cannot even apply for internal jobs in different business unit. There is clause even on internal job site saying that if you need sponsorship donot apply. Why to put such clause even for internal moves...Are you not Cat employee first???..One end the CEO is going to washington to talk about immigration reform and his own company is the most anti-immigration company ever. No company would put clause of no sponsorship for internal moves. The immigration attorney and his team is the worst every attorney.
