      Pros

      Great company. There are a lot of opportunity for advancement and different positions.

      Management is already doing a lot to grow the business. I do not have any advice to give to management at this time.

      I have been working at Rockwell Collins full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      Casual work environment, friendly co-workers at seemingly every level of the company, relevant and challenging work.

      Cons

      The company is so casual that unless you are working on a government contract I feel like there is no oversight so I can't assess my own progress.

      Advice to Management

      I think Management know what they are doing more than me. The few pieces of advice I could give are long term project restructurings to reduce inefficiency. these things need to be done from a company and personnel stand point since these inefficiencies affect workers mostly, but there is no one solution for all management or all programs.

      Pros

      Great benefits and good pay

      Cons

      Their "pro-diversity" program is promoting lesser qualified people to lower and mid management positions. If you are a white, non-hispanic, male forget about job advancement.

      Advice to Management

      If you want minorities and women in management make sure that they exceed minimal qualifications

      Pros

      Great people to work with on a Team, Cadillac Benefits which are rare in the workplace today and great working conditions.

      Cons

      Onboarding process was tedious, takes about three weeks to get a notification if you are hired or not. Site was not ready, poor on the ground leadership from all levels. No idea on what is expected of you, you have to guess what your responsibilities are. Impossible to get anyone to do what is needed in a timely way, for instance if you have multiple chains of teams working together and lack of direct leadership of the overall project, this is a problem.

      Advice to Management

      Do not try and setup a site in less than a month which normally takes three to four months to complete.
