Pros

Good pay and benefits, and if you fit into the culture the sky is the limit for advancement opportunities.

Cons

Although I support apprenticeship programs, Rolls-Royce uses it to "grow it's own." by that I mean that if you join RR and have worked for other organisations, you will have a hard time adjusting to their culture. In addition they have an order book I don't think they know how to produce. If you don't fit the culture, you will be bullied, and aggressively undermined, and forced out.

Working with great people makes such a difference day to day – it's good to hear that's been a real part of your experience. We hear you on internal progression – career growth can feel different for everyone, and we know we've still got work to do to make development paths clearer. Feedback like yours really helps us move in the right direction.
