From a high performance, multi-awarded, highly liked by peers and direct reports, 10+ year management level employee that was let go in the Fall of 2015 while I saw plenty of younger, less tenured, less productive workers, etc., keep their jobs, Cummins is NOT a good company to work for. They cannot manage their business regardless of tariffs, etc. They cut with a hatchet, without any concern for performance. Then they have a hiring frenzy, then they layoff a few years later, etc. Cut your losses and leave while you can if you haven't been let go already. And, I suggest your counter any severance package and ask for a year's worth if you can, especially if you are an older, higher paid employee. Job market isn't what it used to be.
Extremely well said. Good post @VTZrvct-5Lwpc
