Cummins Employee Review

Current Employee – been working at Cummins

Pros – Excellent benefits in a market that doesn't always offer them. Also, great growth potential and a forward-thinking performance management system that helps employees to discern areas for development. Quarterly performance checks and annual reviews.

Most managers recognize the need for a good work-life balance, and are flexible with employees that have occasional needs to accomodate family, etc.

Cummins also has an excellent track record at recognizing and valuing diversity.

Cons – As an manufacturing company in the automotive industry, the fortunes of the company are largely tied to the heavy-duty truck market. However, the company has been careful to diversify over the last 5 years or so, and is now well positioned to ride out cyclical storms.

Advice to Senior Management – You can never communicate too much. Trust your employees with more information. You do a good job of communicating good news and bad, but sometimes there is a delay in the bad news. You know that people are already expecting the bad, so don't hold back.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
