Pros

Good place to learn Pro-E software as design engineer

Cons

Rating and ranking does not make sense. They rank all 22-23 salary grade people against each other which include design engineers (so called Designer), development engineers, test engineer, application engineers etc. Lower 10% people donot get annual raise at all. No vision benefit. People who do 3D modeling 24 X 7, cummins call them designer (Design Engineer). If you want to learn how to use Pro-E, then start your career at Cummins as design engineer. Waste too much money on duplicate tasks. From Alpha to Beta design changes a lot. Design engineers have do drafting work to create preliminary graphics which I think is kind of waste of time and money. It can be done cheaply by using drafters. But cummins uses drafter only for final design prints.

Pros

Work from home, flexibility, paternal leave policy, pension plan

Cons

Pay is low and has not kept up with inflation. Leadership is only DEI hires, and they do not seem to understand the actual work being done. They are making life miserable for employees by adding unnecessary KPI's and performance tracking to make a name for themselves within the senior leadership. No loyalty for employees, they will let you go in the blink of an eye if the business struggles.
