Pros

Equitable work/life balance. Some good people.

Cons

Heavily siloed, ridiculous processes, completely dysfunctional - this place makes the federal government look efficient. Despite the brand's reputation, it's a surprisingly un-American and anti-American company. The company is made up of a ton of cheap foreign labor, and is constantly offshoring American jobs. Additionally, the company uses a ton of temp/contract workers and H-1B visas. This company uses and throws away more people, faster than you would believe. The company's motto is "win the right way", which couldn't be further from the truth. This is an unethical, faceless, anti-American, globalist corporation, that only cares about the bottom line. If you are seeking employment, look elsewhere.

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"
