Pros
Pay and Benefits are comparable to the industry
Cons
Cat believes they are innovative and forward thinking but in fact they are mired in the past. Some of their systems are antiquated and so many times we heard 'this is the CAT way - we've been successful for 100-plus years'. Not so forward thinking. They really hate new ideas - especially from 'non-Cat bred' people. Mining was dying anyhow but Cat and their arrogance sure helped it along quickly. HR is pretty much a joke. Management is arrogant and uncaring about people's personal lives so the work/life balance they talk about is just that - talk. They seem to like employees living in fear and trying to step on one another - so much for 'teamwork'. Decent pay but not a good work environment. Employees do not trust management or HR.
