Pros

Our facility is called Memphis Distribution Center (MDC), located in Memphis, TN. It's the most well-rounded distribution within Cummins and probably one of the best-performed distribution center in the US. Here you have opportunities to cooperate with people from all other functions, such as supply chain, operations, materials, IT, etc. The atmosphere is free and trusty, and MDC is very diversified; you can see people from many different countries. People are friendly and most of them are very positive and supportive.

Cons

MDC is not close to the headquarter, so the visibility is not as good as in Columbus, IN. Promotion opportunities are not as many as Columbus because most people are hired locally and are not going to transfer frequently. In order to get visible to higher management, you might have to try to find opportunities back in Columbus or use your network to other sites.

Pros

Most the people are okay. BUT this place is TOXIC AF They do not give you a 30min lunch, they take 30min out of your check, but they give you 30min away from your machine, so if you have to walk 2 to 3 min to and from your zone you barely get 25min for lunch, One of the new people was clocking out for 30 min for their lunch and was actually told if you clock out for 30 min you have taken a longer lunch than you are allowed.

Cons

Upper Management doesn't care or doesn't listen to employees, There is nothing on earth that will make people want to be there for 13days in a row, I used to hear at Cummins you have to follow the standard work, now its do whatever you have to to get your numbers. You DO NOT Provide enough time off, not when you are running people 13d in a row. you provide enough time off for a 40h work week nothing more, Get it into your thick skulls.
