Pros

Cummins emphasizes diversity from the top leadership team. Unlike most of other companies which declared themselves as diverse, the only hire international students into engineering and/or IT function, every year they hire international students into different function (Finance, Accounting, Quality, Supply Chain, HR, Engineering.

Cons

Middle management team do not fully act the way top leadership wants them to - Micro-management, unfair hiring process spotted once on a while without top management's knowledge. Has really hard time firing incompetent individuals.

Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunities to travel, compensation, work-life balance, networking opportunities with others in the company. Opportunity to participate in projects.

Cons

Location, location, location! Although the city was great, the actual work environment was not. Health insurance isn't the greatest. No accrual of PTO, only allotted days for the year. Job position applied for was not job position actually assigned. Mission and values of company did not trickle down to this site.
