Pros

- Tremendous geographic opportunity - New President & COO who sees the gaps - Loyal customer base - Competitors are weak on after sale support as well - Strong brand association by representing Caterpillar

Cons

- Very low empowerment levels even at relatively senior regional management levels - Poor execution of ERP implementation - Far too tolerant of under performance in management at all levels - Promotions based on relationships rather than performance - No succession planning or career development - Continual changes in what is important or maybe better stated as always looking for the next magical solution rather than staying the course - Poor relationship with bargaining unit at most levels of management - Do as I say, not do as I do approach from VP level in areas such as customer relationship development, rewards & recognition, accountability and empowerment

Pros

Nice people if you are part of the clic. Good benefits. Environment is good for the most part, have made a few friends.

Cons

Not many opportunities to move up unless you want to move. Low pay and pension plan is not the greatest. Three tier wages to employees doing the exact same job!

Pros

Good benefits and a wonderful group of people working at the lower end of the totem pole.

Cons

Managers overseeing business functions in which they have no expertise. Internal IT is basically outsourced, and that source will only troubleshoot and provide assistance with Internal applications. Not those that go outside the Finning demark/Firewall, and there are a number of systems that are outside the firewall...good luck on help and support. Many systems are behind the times, and those implemented do not meet the business processes of the organization...I will not go into the what really occurred at the Executive level...
