Business Outlook
Pros
Great environment if you want to relaxed work life balance and have a young family. Caterpillar is a great place for people who have a “work to live” not “live to work” mentality. You will have a great deal of personnel freedom and a flexible schedule. Great benefits for salaried employees.
Cons
Poor management. Highly political environment if you want to advance. Promotion is based more on politics and networking then merit. Cat values conformity above initiative. Based on your personality this can be a positive or negative.
