Rockwell Collins Employee Reviews for Senior Software Engineer

"If you want to work as a software engineer, I recommend sticking to the Cedar Rapids offices. The process center software engineering group is hated by the rest of IT for the fact that it exists, although they are unwilling (or unable) to tackle the needs of the process center."

"Most of my positions were good or great! The last one was horrible."

What do you like about working at Rockwell Collins?

"I loved the challenge of the engineering projects and most of the people I worked with."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Verify that the interviewing manager is the manger you will be working for. This company has a mandatory 10%-will-be-low-performers policy and then they wonder why their attrition is so high."

What don't you like about working at Rockwell Collins?

"I believe one of RC's flaws is they allow too much empire building. Job satisfaction depended heavily on which department and group you were in."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Don't shoot the messenger. Do something about the problem personalities and USE the data from the after-action reviews, don't just sugar coat to make things look better than they are."

"Best company to work with for challenging development roles."

"Backward selfish management - military styled."
