Cummins have sent a communication to the Daventry leadership team stating redundancies are imminent at Daventry engine plant as they are capping engine output 2016/17.

Cummins like many big corporations likes to boast how wonderful they are in giving to the United Way. But I believe that they are helping to create a need for the United Way in the first place by destroying the lives of their own employees with... — read more

A real joke! Positions cut in Dec 2015 were filled within a month! Job pistings that were frozen to save $ were reopened within months. All this to "save money" when reality is that it was for the advantage of year end stock prices. This company... — read more

Yes, they are a great employer if you are not a salaried employee, in which case you are subject to the forced ranking system and mass layoffs every 3-4 years of experienced and dedicated employees. The only people that would see Cummins as a decent... — read more

Those jobs that went were from Cummins’ professional ranks rather than the factory floor.

I was threw away by Cummins in 10 minutes after 7 years service. No explanations at all. My rankings were 2 or 2 + in the past years. I just relocated here by the company. I bought a house and sold my old house. No compensation for my losses. My 10... — read more

Spent 14 years working for Cummins, and I can tell you from experience you'll be much better off leaving. The sooner you leave, the better off you'll be. 14 years working for Cummins, 8 years of layoffs, 2 years of no merit increases, and 1 year... — read more 

Over 40 were just laid off over the last 3 weeks and I was one of them after being there 5 years. I feel sorry for the ones left behind who now have to do double the work for the same pay. Theu are headed down hill.

I already too redundancy - I am single, and will travel now. It's a bit easier for me but some have families and that's hard on them.

Columbus is doomed! Cummins keeps so much going downtown, the downtown restaurants will start closing and the housing will go down - this will be massive for local economy, it's not like it's very diversified so the hit will be massive.. Hotel Indigo... — read more

Do you guys know what's a typical severance pay package for someone who joined last year? Please let me know.

OK, how about this - when lines go away and jobs are lost those employees are to go to other areas in the plant. For example a worker with 10+ years experience on a first shift may get forced to another shift until they find another job within the... — read more 

The system sucks. It's as simple as that and Cummins is poorly managing it on top of it. I've seen forced rating and ranking systems before, rank and yank kind of deals, all of them are bad but we are especially bad.The whole process requires you to... — read more 

When is this madness going to stop? I do not think we'll be able to recover and grow until the oil and gas recovers. I hope this happens quickly.

OK, that's the story - but how come that we have so many layoffs and that there is so much anxiety around? Tell me that? And why do we layoff #goodemployees while executive bonuses keep rising? Does Linebarger need another million, two, or ten? Where... — read more
