Pros
Caterpillar is a pretty well paying job but...
Cons
The environment is awful, you get threatened to be walked out and they use that as a scare tactic. You may work as a supplemental employee (no benefits, no paid time off), for up to two years before being hired on by CAT, or laid off. Union dues are taken out of your check even tho you are not represented by the union until you are a CAT employee.
