Hi all,

I wanted to ask few questions. If anyone working at Caterpillar can answer the same, I’ll be grateful:

1. Does company provide free transportation in Bangalore?
2. How is work culture and WLB in Caterpillar?
3. What does rank 23 or 24 mean? Is it similar to Senior Manager or what?
4. Are there any firings happening in the company (similar to other product based companies like Meta, Oracle etc. )
5. How is the promotion / hike scenario in the organisation?

Yeah thanks again. 5 day WFO was communicated to me

1.Company provides free shared cab, but are restricted to shift timings and FTEs.
2. WLB completely depends on your nature of work and team. You dont have details to ans this.
But mostly commonly its manager oriented.
3. 23 is senior. Approx 8 to 14 years experience. 24 is higher than this. Nothing is concretely defined.
4. Few in US. Havent heard a lot in India for FTE because nimber of FTEs are less
5.

Thanks a lot for your revert. This answers most of my queries.

5. Depends as any other company. But you can expect standard hike and variable pay

Thanks for the revert. I’ve been told by HR that variable pay is mostly 100%. Even it can go beyond that but is never less than 80%. Is this true?
Also, hike is generally in double digits (as it is a product company) or is in single digits only like most of the consulting companies?

Is it 5 days and strict work timings like 6 hours to be in office?

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
