Caterpillar seems as though it would be a good company to work for if the company views you as a traditional Caterpillar employee.

The Management at Caterpillar has struggled in managing the changeover from one type of operating structure and system to the new operating structure and system.

Pros

Good place to work...have made great friendships. They employ some of the best and most talented.

Cons

It is a fairly 'flat' organization. While there is opportunity for promotion, getting to a supervisory or management position can take several years, even for experienced professionals.
