Cummins reviews

The managers don't seem to respect the employees. Those being the shift managers. All line managers, directors, and higher management treat people with respect for the most part. New policies just came out that took away most ways to get a day off. Now you get an occurence for calling in sick even if you have a doctors slip. Although with a doctors slip you only get 1 occurnce for however many days you are off for. One of the major things that aggrevates me about cummins is the profit sharing. Our profit sharing is based off a couple factors. The major factor in how much we get is safety. If someone gets hurt and its a recordable our share of the profit goes down. Thats the case even if its the companies fault. For example, an employee recently lost a finger because the safety devices on the machine all stopped working. Cummins has a safety department thats supposed to keep you safe. Not very comforting when they dont go back and check things like that. They also have books called MSDS. They have information about chemicals and what to do if something happens. One thing that is not in there is information about the ppe, personal protective equipment. For example, recently i had a bad allergic reaction to sulfa that was used on gloves before they were sent to cummins. I am highly allergic to sulfa and cummins knows this, you have to go through their health care system called COHA. You would think that they would keep track of chemicals used on items they buy. They do not and had to contact the manufacturer to figure it out. I lost a day of work from this and still got an occurence even though it was because of work.

Constant management changes. Managers that are hired are trained by those under them and then review them according to what they "think" is acceptable performance with no knowledge of what the employee is really doing.
