Anyone would care to chime in with a prediction about potential Cummins layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

what this company preach is not what they follow. their ethics and code of conduct su-ks
Cummins is a great case study of a decent American corporation ruined by abandoning “Meritocracy” Just look at the top and middle management! All the decision makers promoted based on “they kissed somebody’s a-s up above” instead of “they were the best of the best” oh by the way, does the company have the ability to know who is the best? The entire review system is based on feedback vs measurable KPI’s.
Looks like the lies need to stop now.The C.E.O ie Jenifer Rumsey needs to come clean and do the right thing and resign.

Cummins' to pay $1.675 billion penalty over truck engine emission defeat devices.
Stock price nosedive right after the news came out. More layoff?
Agree. They've pretty much said we'll likely have an involuntary action in Q1. They just can't quantify it until they see how the Q4 results and Q1 orders look.
- Not a 2023 situation.
Same at DARLINGTON DEP spent millions and nothing to show for it.Morelies and Steve T are a right shower.
Holsets/Cummins Huddersfield plant over spent by £4 million this year.
Now there asking the shop floor workers to do more because the office staff
who created this situation hide behind there laptops.always the case with this company.
It's a good for nothing organization. Only non-ambitious folks stay at this place long term.
Team leaders gone at DARLINGTON DEP UK yesterday more to come
What a deceitful company.lie after lie.middle management with no experience all been promoted not on their merit just on what a-s they have kissed.
Good article in the indianapolis business journal.
DARLINGTON DEP overtime next two saturdays.Morelies and Stevie T could not run a bath.
122 to be layed off...all temp staff went last week ....we,ve been emailed overtime on for Saturday 28th... unbelievable
A Warn notice had been published for the North Charleston technical centre. Affecting 72 employees.
But closure in not until July 24
All the shop floor temps let go DARLINGTON DEP today.More to follow.
Anyone know what they typically offer for voluntary separation? Is it better than what you would get if you are laid off?
Columbus has chatter of voluntary separation letters coming soon.
122 to go from Darlington, more too follow next week :/
DARLINGTON DEP UK HR ONE GONE UP 122 TO GO MORE TO FOLLOW.IT HAS HIT THE FAN.
!! Care to elaborate? What do you know?
Everyone’s under threat, not looking good
Today DARLINGTON DEP mass meeting with plant manager mass layoffs all the temps to go followed by full time employee across the full plant,it is going to hit the fan.
Wouldn’t that just result in uneven pay across BU’s and the. Farther down the road a need for more market adjustments?
Well folks, looks like Cummins Leadership is considering pushing merit budgets back to the individual business units which means some BUs will be have to take actions to come up with the money for pay increases. As a result some BUs such as DBU will be under a bit of a strain and will have to do a small layoff to make up for this. Other BUs will be mostly not affected. The alternative is an across the board merit reduction. It's CLTs most direct way to drive "proper" levels of personnel for each of the business units.
A little birdie told me that the branch in Tampa was under fire. They do not answer the phones and the money is not coming in.
Hope it happens at DEP DARLINGTON rumours are redundancy November.
Office staff at the Huddersfield plant having to apply for there jobs if unsuccessful
at risk of redundancy unless the cr-p union agree to backfill on the shop floor then voluntary redundancy is open to all.Which Cummins would love to get rid of all long term employees.Then they would have a woke work force that would kiss ar-e and drop all colleagues in the sh-t.
To the person who stated that corporate headcount review was recently started & completed, any idea what the conclusion was?
What's the McKinsey transformation headcount % reduction for EBU?
Yes head count reduction review started and concluded in corporate recently.
Any chatter about other BUs getting affected - it seems hiring is frozen in some functions already. Is it gonna be another Q4 layoff season again?
Confirmed on HR restructure
As a heads up, those in the HR Function are going through a restructure that will result in a significant (~10%) percentage of employees being RIF'd. Please, especially if you are in a Line HR role supporting business, consider looking at another role in the company or at least put your resume out there as a "just in case." HR Leaders are beginning the process of "defending roles" at the moment which will continue for the next few months. Some will get redeployed to CBS roles but many will be let go early next year. This is not just a rumor, please plan accordingly.
PSBU official walkouts began today. Notified two days ago there would be boxes available today. A lot of people stayed home. Very quiet around the plant. Only one assembly line running today. Good luck to all and hope you land softly.
The groups being targeted are those that don't contribute to the diversity metrics of Ethisphere's Most Ethical Companies rankings. Cummins luvs their rankings, man.
What groups are being targeted? BU's? care to elaborate a bit more if you have information?
They are currently laying off a lot of people. HR sending emails offering $10k to leave or face firing within 2 weeks. This is real and it is happening and there are specific groups of people they are targeting. Cummins should be ashamed. Jennifer should be ashamed
15% equate 800 staff or more
I heard 15% layoff across the board at PSBU have started. Courtesy of J Bush + McKenzie
