Pros

Combustion, performance, emissions engineer position was great. One really has to get a grasp on how the whole diesel engine works. Since you are mostly working with the engine running it comes to life and everything is variable. The company has great support for learning as much as you want to know all it takes is reaching out and everyone is helpful. There are a lot of solid people working at Cummins.

Cons

The companies locations just may not be for everyone. Mostly rural slower pace cities. Headquarters lives up to its culture but other locations lose that feel. Many things said and what is done doesn't always line up which displaces your trust a little.

Pros

You get paid for doing OT on weekends at the plant I work at now If you are in a shift that has less staffing you might earn more money on weekends as you will not have anyone to rotate with or less people to rotate with I am happy to have a manager who understands I have a lot of work pressure

Cons

If you are in a shift that has less staffing you will have a lot of work to do. For me the con is lots of work pressure in the shift I work. I think I do the work of atleast 2 people and sometimes even more. First shift will have people to rotate on weekends. Unfortunately 2nd shift doesn't have people to rotate with. We end up working every weekend but have same number of vacation days. People in 2nd can get there vacation days used up before other shifts. But still I would say its a good company considering I work in a manufacturing facility.
