Ambitious and evolving organisation with great opportunities - but still with the hang-ups of an "old-fashioned" company - Anonymous employee Rolls-Royce Employee Review

Pros

Diverse and ambitious global company with a very high calibre of people, does give a feeling of pride to say you work for RR.

Cons

It can be very challenging to move across sectors in mid-to-senior management positions, there appears to be a view that if you "haven't done your time" in certain areas (particularly Civil Aerospace in Derby), your skills from other sectors may not be valued there.

Working with great people makes such a difference day to day – it's good to hear that's been a real part of your experience. We hear you on internal progression – career growth can feel different for everyone, and we know we've still got work to do to make development paths clearer. Feedback like yours really helps us move in the right direction.

Thanks for sharing, sounds like you’ve had some great people around you – that kind of support makes a huge difference. It’s also encouraging to hear the company direction is coming through as a positive. Location is a personal factor, and we appreciate you sharing that as part of your overall experience.
