Vantaggi

Compensation, benefits, flexibility. Great working environment (co-workers both Caterpillar and ATS, technology...etc) CAT Tech Center Mossville

Svantaggi

In my opinion, management is abysmal at almost every level except first line supervisors and team leaders. There again, they are only capable within the amount of leash allowed from their superiors (choke collar in reality) Vast number of employees are not held accountable for policy breaches; as long as you are socially adept and excel at schmoozing. High concentration of double standards. Ol' Boys network to advance and/or survive layoffs. Nothing is weighed on merit and not enough technical opportunities for advancement. Advancement ladder is biased toward management. Constant threat of layoff/furlough/trough. (Seems like every quarter) Contract atmosphere and you are made well aware of it.

Vantaggi

Great time to sell into the manufacturing sector related to productivity and equipment reliability.

Svantaggi

Operational driven company but constantly changing the sales org and strategy. "Leaders" that have no background in business development or revenue generation responsible for sales strategy. Wasn't uncommon to report to a new leader or move sales territories multiple times in a year but quota never changed. Top performers are expected to do and sell more but additional financial upside was out of the question. A select group of legacy employees and "leaders" made decisions in a bubble in most cases. I was a top performer during my entire tenure at ATS. I agreed to work out a two week notice to help transition my accounts but was terminated after three days. No one in middle management, director, or exec-level roles asked for feedback or even made the time to send an email wishing me well or thanking me for my contributions during my five years with the company. In fact, my health insurance was terminated with no warning before I left the last day. My contributions and sacrifices for ATS meant so little to the company that they didn't care that my two small children wouldn't have insurance for over a month when I tried to leave the right way.
