Pros

Rockwell invests the development of their people through classes, training programs, and off-site experiences, all sending the message that the organization is eager to facilitate a steady path to personal growth and are Diversity minded.od salary Great culture Multiple job options Many locations Overall good experience, but the fairy tale may soon fade

Cons

Rockwell does a good job of not making you feel like "just a number" on a day-to-day basis. But when times get a bit rough, you are definitely reminded that you indeed are a number. Business need will always com first. You come to distrust management more and more.
