Pros

One of the great advantages of working at Woodward Governor is how close it is to Chicago. This provided a great get-a-way on the weekends. The town of Rockford itself has great parks and a wonderful bike lane through town.

Cons

There is not a whole lot going on outside of your cubicle. Most days pass very slow with nothing to do but sit and stare at your computer, that you might not even be allowed to use the internet with since most computers only run their intranet.
