Pros

cummins is a good place to learn engineering skills, there is plenty to do so you will get a chance to work on projects that make your resume look good, working in an engineering role will also get you a lot of design, development, validation and even some manufacturing experience that few roles offer, Benefits and work-life balance are good.

Cons

1. Layoffs every 2-3 years, sometimes sooner. 2. The salary was good a the beginning, when I was fresh out of college, but it did not keep up with inflation, more importantly, it did not keep up with the value I provided to the company as a grew my skills and contributions, this was a big reason for me leaving. 3. I have nothing against the Indian co workers I had, they were all okay, but there is a very obvious take over, this has lead to favoritism which will affect you career growth. I personally saw some engineers barely work and get promotions, pay increases, better projects, etc. 4. The technicians do not like newer engineers coming in. This can make your job harder since they all mostly know each other and have an unfortunate clique attitude. 5. There is nothing to do in south Indiana.

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.
