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.

Pros

Salary is okay, about typical

Cons

Understaffed, but won't bring in new people when needed When orders pick up, kiss your work/life balance goodbye, overtime is declared on a moment's notice, including Saturdays Horrible working environment, very noisy Management expects clockwork precision in attendance, one nanosecond late (no matter what reason), and you get demerit points A "we own your soul" attitude in general
