Pros

Great place for what you want to do, great career planning and support, employee friendly policies and culture, knowledable and experienced colleagues. Process driven and collective decision making environment.

Cons

Too much resistance to change, business units and functions operate in silos. Heirarical culture leading to slow change process. You need to get so many buy-in and/or approvals on your ideas and projects that you might feel frustated but good thing is : ideas/projects which survive that rigor are truely great..!

Pros

Cummins is a good company for international employees, payring for H1 and green cards. Also pays for higher education (bachelor or master degrees)

Cons

Managers have a discretion to freeze people in position for a year. Pay is below average. If at the headauarters, one has to be in the inner circle and know the important people in order to advance. Poor life work balance and company is very cyclical going on hiring binge one year only to lay off the very next.
