Pros

The people. The everyday Joe and Sally who work here are great.

Cons

"Culture & Values" are smoke and mirrors. Say one thing. Do another. Example: Travel restrictions? Not for Execs on the corporate jet. why not burn $250K in jet fuel to go *anywhere.* Nevermind that this will equal 2 junior engineers salaries, engineers they will layoff in 12 months due to "tightening the belt."

Pros

Good for new college graduate or new career employee. You can become "one of them" . They treat customers well.

Cons

Growth is strangled by entrenched "good old boy" Rockwell culture. Bosses tend to gain their positions by seniority, not by competence. If you do leave Rockwell, expect to be treated as a traitor, even by HR, who neglect their professional code. Pre-2010 employees have pensions but new employees don't get pensions and benefits as older employees.

Pros

-Great pay -Good / up to date technologies to work with

Cons

They fire / lay-off people way too often. There is way too much turn-over in management and staff. Un-properly trained management. People are promoted to managers with no management training and subsequently make basic management mistakes that drastically effect their employees.
