RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Rockwell Collins full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Strong appreciation for workers as PEOPLE and not just numbers and means to attain sales goals. Hard work is awarded with team lunches, dinners, and socials (and sometimes a few bucks). Coworkers are generally very hardworking individuals who take great pride in their work and are dedicated to the people their products are meant to serve
Cons
Cedar Rapids is okay, but I personally don't want to raise a family there. As a young individual, I would recommend somewhere that has more going on, unless you like more of a country lifestyle! This company also has other locations, of course, so don't let this be a total deterrent.
Advice to Management
Keep up the great work. Your workers love the time you put into developing them as professionals.

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Rockwell Collins full-time (More than 10 years)
Pros
CEO and his staff are working hard to improve employee engagement and satisfaction, as well as our aging facilities.
Easy to move to different areas in the company.
Great people at every site I've worked with (Cedar Rapids, Richardson, Europe, Warrenton, and others).
Challenging technical work.Cons
Aerospace & Defense can be a frustrating industry to work in, constant ebbs and flows in the market, policy, process, and government budgets make it difficult to get things started and, sometimes, to get things finished.
Advice to Management
Keep up the good work, it's making a difference!

RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Rockwell Collins full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
I generally work with good people. It's a Union environment so our pay raises are fair and built into our contract. The benefits and paid time off are amazing! You'll seriously never find the amount of time off they give us anywhere else.
Cons
No room for advancement. The job is a little tedious at times. While having a Union is great, it makes getting a promotion impossible (because it goes by seniority rather than work ethic / performance). It also makes it hard for them to fire terrible employees who would never make it outside of a Union environment.
Advice to Management
Do more to make good employees feel appreciated and not like they're being taken advantage of when they go above and beyond.
