you do that all in one workout? lol not a typical BODYBUILDING setup by no means.
that might be better aim'ed towards an athlete training for football or something IMO

And what are supposed to get from this workout?

Other than bored of course.

good for what, is the question you need to be asking.
i would say that workout is good for someone who wants to do a little exercising with weights, and wants to do a whole body workout 2-3 times a week. i wouldnt expect any substantial strength or mass gains beyond the bodys initial adaptation to the routine.
in other words, imo i think you could do much better if size and strength is what you are after.

Try this instead:

This is a different type of routine that is great for building and maintaining strength while also reducing body fat. This type of workout contains 6 main exercises per session – two for the legs and four exercises working the major multi-joint movement planes of the upper body. The key to this type of workout is that the sequences of exercises are switched from workout to workout even though the exercises remain the same. This means you’ll be stronger on certain lifts on the day when they are first in the sequence and weaker on the days when they are toward the end of the sequence.

The key to these workouts is to use a weight that challenges you for the prescribed number of reps. You are not using enough weight if you complete the prescribed number of reps and could still do 3 or 4 more. Increase the weight slightly each week to maintain progression. The sets are reduced in this type of workout to avoid over-training due to completing the same exercises in each workout. Rest 2-3 minutes between work sets in these workouts. Alternate Workout A and B, training 3 times per week; then complete 20 minutes of high intensity sprints or other interval training one other day per week for a total of four workouts per week (e.g. Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat = A/B/A/C). Following this example, the following week would look like this: Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat = B/A/B/C.

Workout A

Main exercises:
1. Barbell overhead squats – warm up sets, then 2 x 6

3. Weighted pull-ups - warm up sets, then 2 x 6
4. Romanian deadlifts – warm up sets, then 2 x 6
5. Weighted dips – warm up sets, then 2 x 8
6. Barbell bent over rows – warm up sets, then 2 x 8

6-8 minute high intensity interval training finish

Main exercises:
1. Romanian deadlifts – warm up sets, then 2 x 6
2. Barbell bent over rows – warm up sets, then 2 x 8
3. Weighted dips – warm up sets, then 2 x 8
4. Barbell overhead squats – warm up sets, then 2 x 6
5. Weighted pull-ups - warm up sets, then 2 x 6
6. Incline barbell presses – warm up sets, then 2 x 6
