"The women's leadership program is outstanding but it is a bright spot in a very dark place. The culture is toxic and leadership is a good old boy's club that is concerned with protecting their turf at all costs. Men are promoted based on relationships and potential; women are paid less for doing the same role and have to prove it again and again. "

"Policies are in place but are highly manager dependent. Still a lot of "butt in seat" mentality and expectations of 24/7 availability. Remote work, at least on an as needed/ discretionary basis is the norm at most companies now but it is not necessarily built in at Caterpillar. "
