Pros

If you get a good manager then you will have a good time working at RR, plenty of good managers but also some bad enough to lose their entire team (either physically or respect wise) within weeks of starting - Possible to progress - Some great people - Great products

Cons

Former decisions haunting the company; - Progression at staff levels requires a lot of work and it isn't possible to get a pay rise when you interview and accept a promotion. If you progress quickly in terms of positions it can be hard to keep up in terms of pay scale. - HR mostly outsourced/off-shored (inflexible and detached) - Major excel abuse/over reliance - IT outsourced, very limited engineering/programming in house. IT staff are virtually all project management managing implementation of off the shelf software (over budget and behind plan)
