Pros

Big company, with lots of name recognition in the industry. It is a wonderful feeling to help a customer solve a problem by assisting them with an application issue.

Cons

Very hard to change jobs once pigeon holed. Forced ranking and yearly lay offs. The company is always looking to get rid of higly payed employees and replace them with new employees that make much less. Very little manufacturing of Rockwell products are done in the US anymore. Customers are told to throw away and replace instead of repairing.

Pros

Rockwell has a nice team of people that work well together. There was a genuine sense of working together, and I was not aware of major tensions between people or groups. Support, Development, QA, and Consulting all work well together. A good measure of whether co-workers really get along is to see if they hang out together after work, and I found that people often did get together on Friday nights and had a good time together.

Cons

I can't think of anything particularly bad that stands out.

Pros

Stable, good benefits, consistent. They treat you well and I really like my manager.

Cons

Not sure if non-engineers have much of a future here, yet. Fairly homogeneous work force: mostly male, mid-west, white, middle age engineers.
