Thread regarding Rockwell Automation Inc. layoffs

What’s the inside story?

Scotty G is retiring?? lol. I’m sure it was his decision. Running out of talent as so much has departed in the last five years. Shuffle deck chairs and give a shiny object a sr vp job with no solutions experience (unless you count paid consulting). I can’t wait to see the “bold” plans of the new leaders. Reorgs aplenty.
“We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams, we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing, and what a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization.”

I guess all the Roker’s are comfortable in their ignorance. Dare to grow (a pair of nuts). You won’t, you are a Rockwell lifer.

@v4 just wondering what “finance” exposure she gets in sales? Also wondering what monument to success she has demonstrated I have not seen it.

I've never saw any direction or initiative from him.. he definitely appeared to be an appeasement hire to someone or some direction who basically collected a paycheck.. I can't think of 1 thing he pushed that was his own idea..

Tessa taking over that role will give her the overall marketing and finance exposure.. but I wouldn't be surprised to see some reorg's in these groups as past leaders have just been keeping the same path as other without doing much.. but there is alot of overlap in this org.

Anyone have thoughts around working with the AI guy? On the surface that sounds promising.

The management revolving door shows how much our leadership is innovating (none)
