Parts Specialist (Former Employee) – Cleveland, OH – December 6, 2018
Company always had plenty of work, almost always worked more than forty hours. Union Job. Co-workers were great, management not so much. Have worked other places where workers not treated as fair as this company.
Pros
Structed work hours
Cons
Benefits could be better
High pay with zero security
Engineering Manager (Former Employee) – Indiana – December 5, 2018
Cummins is a great place to work if high pay is your goal, however, don't plan on retiring from there. It is rare of anyone to last more than 10 years there before being RIF'd or fired.
Management rules employees by the fear of being fired. Indiana is at At Will Employment state and Cummins actively uses this policy. One of their favorite tactics is to fire people a year or two before retirement.

Quality Project Manager (Current Employee) – Columbus, IN – November 28, 2018
Cummins is a diverse place to work in. Most employees recognize the importance of a work life balance and value family as priority. Opportunities for growth may be dependent on the function or team that you are in.
Overall great company
Senior Project Manager (Former Employee) – Dallas, TX – November 28, 2018
Great company to work for as the culture embraces open communication and collaboration. People are very nice and the work is complex, so it can be very rewarding. The only problem is that there can be a lot of bureaucracy involved which can delay progress on specific projects. The company should drive to become more customer driven.
Pros
Great people, diversity, and work-life balance
Cons
Bureaucracy at different levels
Great company with amazing benefits & room for growth
SERVICE WRITER (Former Employee) – Dallas, TX – November 26, 2018
Cummins is an amazing company to work for with great benefits and lots of room for growth. In my personal experience, had management not changed, I would've probably stayed longer.
2018 Layoffs
Manager (Former Employee) – Columbus, IN – November 25, 2018
For months my group was told we were in the process of doing a reorg but definitely, definitely not doing a RIF. Then, a couple of weeks ago, in a suddenly scheduled meeting with HR, I was told its turned into a RIF, my position was eliminated, and I couldn't apply for another job in the company, turn in your computer and badge.
So much for communication, being above board, and supporting your employees.

Poor choice in manager
Technician (Former Employee) – Bossier – November 21, 2018
Absolutely loved the job. If the manager that ran it didn’t like you then he found reasons to get rid of you. Let employees cuss at customers and definitely brought personal life into professional. Corporate should really look into that store. They are losing a lot of business bc of the general manager.
Pros
Good pay and flexible
Cons
Bad choice in management
