Pros

Given meaningful responsibilities from early on. Gives you the opportunity to gain experience in different functions and different departments. Work environment teaches you to work cross-functionally. Consensus system develops your selling techniques internally.

Cons

No work - life balance. Getting along with your direct supervisor is critical to avoid forced yearly layoffs. Getting along with bosses is more important for promotions than performance. Expect backstabbing from hyper competitive employees. Some of the leaders are abusive and disrespectful towards employees.

Pros

Cummins believes in training and education. They reward innovation. There is pride in the product and the fact that it helps the environment.

Cons

The company employes a performance model based on a normal distribution. There are a set number of achievers at each level. This produces a homogeneous culture of like-minded people and sometimes competition can be very fierce for the top spots.
