- Current management is not transparent. - Caterpillar as a company/stock ticker is stable, but the internal enterprise is uncertain. Was an atmosphere of fear/distrust when I left. - Former loyalty is gone; used to be a "never leave" culture of lifers, but last round of layoffs hit several of the 15+ year people. - Highly corporate; bring your consultant's thesaurus.
