Pros

Stock price remains high and they pay relatively well compared to peers.

Cons

50% of the company has been there less than 5 years. Let that sink in. The people on top do not like company - yet they are under pressure to innovate so they wipe out teams and rebuild them with outside talent. The result is the middle layer of people with working knowledge can be completely neutralized in the course of a meeting. Lots of new people showing up at the middle top - mostly cast offs from failed peers. These newbies struggle for several months, make broad changes (layoffs) without even getting to know their people, then hire their buddies/vendors from the previous company. It's a tired old cycle, one that plagued Johnson Controls, Honeywell, and even GE. They lack a way to create leaders and are constantly looking to Free Agents to fix them. Consultants are having a field day here...we are talking 7 figures in each division because the leaders are simply political survivors with eyes on their own board seats elsewhere and retirement...they can't actually make leadership decisions.

Pros

I'm writing an honest review about Rockwell Automation, please consider before you join here. I was working in Rockwell for 7 years, i was always a good Performer. This year 2024 was very bad for me and Rockwell Too. They had to Layoff 900 Employees Globally. This is due to Financial Crises / Losses. These employees were not given any Notice not even a day. I was called in the office by my manager and HR and they told me to leave the laptop and Go. This was very shocking. This is the Worst treatment a company can ever give to their employees who have spent more than 7 years. I was always a good performer. still there was no Empathy towards me. I have been Deeply Hurt by the behavior of the company - HR and Management. The was whey have handled this was very rude as if we have done some Crime.

Cons

2024 is the worst year of Rockwell as they have layoff 900 employees Globally. Poor Management Poor HR No empathy towards employee. Rude behavior of management. pls consider these reviews before you join here as I myself have face this. No Appraisals, no Bonus from last 2 years
