I had an awful experience with Caterpillar management especially when I had worked on Sudhakar Somarowthu. Management engages in far too much politics. I was fired for no apparent reason.My manager Sudhakar rehired a few employees who had previously left organization by offering them a hefty package, despite the fact that they are underperformers. When I learned that I would be fired from the organization I had requested permission from him to attend the interview , but he refused claiming that I am critical resource who needed to work on tasks. In another scenario I asked for leave on the occasion of Diwali but he refused claiming that I was critical resource.Finally,he failed to provide my last month's pay....Read More

Pros : Well established organisation. Flexible work timing. Women's friendly environment.
Dislikes
Promotions is not an easy job here. If you work for an agency, you won’t receive any rewards such as recognition. They don't even view you as part of the team. Their collaboration is limited to full-time employees exclusively. Skill development courses are exclusively for full-time employees. They make commitments when you sign up as an agency for the discussion regarding the position. They won't accomplish a lot. And you require strong endorsements to transform yourself into a specific role. Essentially, skills won't matter; instead, favoritism is what they prioritize....Read More
