Our organization has gone through a major overhaul these days. Organizational re-structuring is an effective tool to manage the turmoil of the dynamically varying conditions and situation. Organization restructuring often means making critical decisions about how to deploy or re-deploy talent. Organizations need insight into where to best utilize talent and find the best fit between existing employees and the jobs that await them. And we deployed the best practices of the industry within a defined time frame very effectively. Change management was the central part of the transaction and I was pompous, being a part of it.

This company is past its best, there is far to much bureaucracy and duplicated effort. On many of their products they have very low margins and are losing market share to competitors like Cummins as well as competitors from Asia.

They need to ditch many parts of the business and concentrate on earthmovers, excavators etc.

Cat is losing ground and is no more a strong company as it used to be. Employees are losing faith because they are not neither rewarded on good performance nor compensated well. In this tough time, we should be encouraged and supported, but oppositely we are scared to death with the threats of layoffs. It's deplorable to work here anymore.
