Not an industry leader

Marine Diesel Mechanic (Former Employee) - Tukwila, WA - 30 May 2019

Company management did a poor job representing their product in their territory and seeking business from existing and future customers. Technicians received poor support from the office, lack of training, necessary tools to support new product, lack of neccisary supplies to complete jobs in a desirable manner.

Pros

Competitive benefits

Cons

Poor wages and poor management

Fun place tonwork

Diesel Mechanic (Current Employee) - San Antonio, TX - 5 March 2019

Cummins takes training on their engines very seriously. They provide all training required to work on their engines. The shop is pretty laid back, as long as you are getting work done efficiently with little to no down time.

Pros

Good benefits

Cons

Hot summers

Diesel/Generator Mechanic (Former Employee) - Memphis, TN - 5 March 2019

good job but you gotta have a Harley Davidson bike to be in with the good ole boys or just be way better than anybody but this is a job for people with experience because management has their pics but the the techs and service guys are friendly but if u leave it up to them to certify u and give raises you might as well be there for the rest of your life

good place

Diesel Mechanic (Former Employee) - Richmond, VA - 5 March 2018

It is a good place to work just a lot of lack of communication. I would recommend this place to work for experienced technicians. Work to home life is easily balanced and as soon as you start your benifits start

Good place to learn

Diesel Mechanic (Former Employee) - Fairmont, WV - 1 March 2018

Pros

Good money if you don't mind taking loads of Abuse

Journeyman Diesel Engine Mechanic(Former Employee) - Surrey, BC - 26 June 2020

After 15 years of employment they wouldn't even entertain the idea of moving me to another position after my department was moved to Denver. Throughout my career I had to deal with a terrible work culture where the manager would berate you publicly for the crime of taking a sick day. When you try to report abuse anonymously it is reported back to the person you are reporting! I was told by Corporate that they were aware of the abuse but were unable to do anything because he was a profitable manager. The only thing that kept me there was the money. From the outside this company looks shiny but it's core is rotten.
