Vantaggi

Very large, recognizable company with lots of money to invest in projects The CAT name looks great on a resume If the economy is good, things at CAT are great Overall, the employees are very nice and friendly Lots of experience in knowledge in the mechanical domain Lots of recreational sports leagues to participate in

Svantaggi

Location, small city in central IL, weather can be rough too Can be expected to say in a job for several years, even if you want to move elsewhere Performance ratings are a distribution more than a representation of your actual performance When the economy is bad, well, working there is very demanding Lots of red tape in the process you need to work around Need several years experience before you are taken seriously

Vantaggi

Good pay Some people in the company are great

Svantaggi

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"
