Pros

I find salaries are competitive, good benefits that include pension and matching RRSP's. Management is fair with all employees in my experience. I have had the opportunity to have multiple careers at Rockwell Automation.

Cons

American ownership, Canadian employees are now understanding what it is like to work for a US employer. Company now looking at long term financial impact, instead of retaining experience and dedication. Reorganizations happen frequently, exspecially in sales. Bottom line is more important now than ever. Downsizing is occuring and it is mostly twenty to thirty year veterins. This reduces the long term pension costs in Canada.

Pros

Solid compensation: Good benefits, mid-range bonuses (when available), pension & mid-range RRSP matching. Decent vacation but it doesn't increase until you're there 15 or 20 years. Smart people: Working with long-standing teams of software developers and the controller engineers is great. Sophisticated and complex challenges regularly. Implementing AI: They're being very considered about how they implement it & doing it at a measured (not slow and not slam-it-in) pace.

Cons

Process: It's highly, highly process-driven. The layers can feel burdensome. Bottom line: They're chasing it with work being moved from North America and Europe to Asia and South America. There's definitely an old boys club and lots of references generalizating and comparing generations. Environmental policy contradictions: They say they want to be environmentally friendly, but have imposed RTO & are only hiring within commuting range of offices.
