PEOPLE-FIRST EXPERIENCE

Work in a setting that prioritizes people

Leading a team isn’t Cline’s only duty. “My most important leadership role is being a father,” he said, commending the parental leave policy that let him be with his newborn son. The human element extends to entities like the Caterpillar Foundation, which among other initiatives, provides support to disaster-impacted areas. “I’m proud to work for a company that prioritizes communities and their people,” Cline said.

Caterpillar makes me feel like they want me to stay and grow.

From navigating M&As in Japan and tackling new product introduction in China and Singapore, to spearheading digital efforts in India, the technologist has grown immensely since starting as an IT analyst. “At Caterpillar, there are myriad opportunities to explore your potential and grow your career globally,” Banerjee said.
