Pros

There is great work/life balance at this company. It doesn't prove to be very stressful and you have the freedom to come and go as you please as long as you are getting your work done. You get paid quite well to just go in, do your job, and go home. Also, JNJ is a worldwide company and has programs where you can work in another part of the world on a temporary basis.

Cons

You just go in, do your job and go home. There is no innovation, no spunk, and no drive to take risks. This is common in mega-large corporations and it is no different at JNJ. All the great work is done before JNJ buys the company and afterwards it's just a matter of time before it fizzles out. There is such great potential here. The regular employees are great, the lower management and directors are great, but after that they start to become clueless and out of touch in a lot of cases.

Pros

Great benefits and pto days off

Cons

Management has no idea how to run this program. They send of directives and only some people follow the rules. They're constantly having Wfm write you up for something. They ask for unrealistic expectations and when you can't comply you get written up for that as well. You can't even go to the restroom without being off the and having your score affected. Callas are back to back and other teams don't do you job so you are just lying to patients. They force you to work mandatory Ot and can't get a day off to use the time you are given but will take it away if you don't use it within a specific time frame. Top management has no idea what the trenches actually do. Run don't walk. They force you in a job you don't want and make you stay there for 18 months. Jnj is a great company but their service center is a nightmare. Join at your own risk
