      It’s good to hear the pay and flexible hours are working for you. We know working in a large, global organisation can sometimes be a challenge and your feedback is helpful as we continue to simplify and support our colleagues to do their best work.

      Always Changing Employer

      Quality manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Open work area is a very social environment, therefore it’s nice and easy to visit with others…and meet others.

      Cons

      Lack of existence confidence in almost all positions. The frequent transitions leave bigger gaps in Rolls Royce improvements…so we get worse…and all areas need improvements.

      A mixed bag

      Failure investigation engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Good people (colleagues) willing to help - Interesting work - Lots of social opportunities: apprentice/graduate association, Language Cafe to learn new languages and cultures together, sports clubs, ... - Good benefits e.g. flexible working, flexible start and end times, cycle to work scheme, EAP, onsite gym, etc. - Good salary - Good training and development, many courses to do - Good on-the-job learning, built up in steps - Good at diversity and inclusion - Lots of employee networks to support improvements in diversity and inclusion - Can be technically promoted in role to up salary and responsibility (but see cons)

      Cons

      - Getting technically promoted in role for engineers is a lot of work (would be easier to shift job and jump into management) - Often stressful, a lot of pressure from seniors - Some bad culture higher up, with old outdated beliefs, such as you should be working a certain number of days in the office - Painful IT issues, slow to update kit - Lots of corporate BS and buzzwords - Many meetings which waste your time - Unethical products, i.e. submarines and across the defence sector - Unsustainable business / products bad for the climate, which they are making noise about changing but there are elements of performative action rather than real action - Managers who get promoted into those roles without support, training or experience to help them succeed - I burnt out some years ago due to the pressure and stress, which they failed to grasp why / the gravity of it - Lots of bureaucracy - Everything takes ages to complete/implement

      Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. Feeling supported and having access to development and good benefits can make a big difference, so we're glad that came through. We know that working in a global business can feel complex, and we're always looking for ways to simplify where we can. Your feedback really helps shape that.
