Pros

Decent benefits, 401k, quarterly bonuses

Cons

They tend to over work the decent workers and allow others to stand around. They hire people with no skill or background in this type of work and who can not keep up with the work pace or expect others to always come and do their jobs for them. Supervisors turn a blind eye to non compliance, and tend to promote on the basis of politically correct not on merit and hard work. They tend to hold annual raises and incentives.

Pros

Good pay Some people in the company are great

Cons

Poorly thought out placement- I was put on a team across the country from where i lived the entired team was new to caterpillar because their company was bought out by cat. They had never had any form of intern before and didnt have anyone else who was remote other then me. Because of time differences the manager reguarly expected me to work off the clock but wouldnt give me project during work hours. No room for growth within team i was stuck to- i asked on multiple occasions how i could stand out and get a permanent position within cat since i was one semester from grafuating and was told by multiple people to just deal with my current role and leave cat because "the only real way to get in is if you work as temp worker and they just hapoen to decide to bring u on internally from that"
