      Pros

      Diversty is respected and encouraged Point of views and Opinions are all considered and used Work life balance is very well maintained Family life is encouraged Really seek to match Career goals and personal growth

      Cons

      For those who like a career structure (i.e. from job 1, you move to job 2 after x years and than job 3, etc) it can be difficult to adapt in the company. The company let everybody decide which path he/she wants to take to reach his/her professional goals. The perfomance review system needs to be improved to give power AND visibility to the performer and not the reviewer.

      Good Place to Start, but Move On...

      Pros

      You can get a lot of responsibility quickly. Can move around easily within company. Good technology. Good co-workers (generally).

      Cons

      Cummins is an unfaithful employer. The ranking system with forced layoffs creates a poisonous atmosphere. Because of the system, employees doing good work are routinely fired. While the current company position is that there are nor forced layoffs, don't believe it. They will be back as soon as the current hiring binge is over. So be realistic - go to Cummins to get a lot of experience early in your career, then leave for a company that is more faithful to its employees. don't stay more than 3 to 5 years. You don't want to be stuck in Columbus mid-career when your turn to get fired rolls around. The hypocrisy between Cummins happy talk about a "great place to work" and the forced ranking and layoffs is breathtaking.

      Pros

      Ability to grow within and change positions. Various tools and techniques used to achieve goals and targets. Pretty decent pay.

      Cons

      People do not stay in their roles long enough. People are ignorant and complain too much about things they do not do themselves to begin with.
