This is not a "one size fits all" review

Director/senior manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Work can be intellectually stimulating, compensation is solid, right now the company is on an upswing, J&J's always good on your resume. If you're a solid performer that fits the culture, you'll be satisfied here (depending on your function/operating company, and your manager)

Cons

Much depends on your manager/management. Two people can do the same job, but will have totally different takeaways depending on which Janssen company, and their manager. Like any other big company (and perhaps small ones too), it's all about "the quarter" at J&J. There is the perception that they move older employees out of the organization (which has given rise to the saying, "don't go gray at J&J").

Different treatment for different divisions

Sales representative

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent salaries, good benefits, good work life balance.

Cons

Divisions are dissolved after promises of "3-5 more years", everyone in the division I was in was expected to interview for multiple different internal positions, more were not offered these jobs. Another division went through "restructuring" and they were given jobs in more lucrative areas without interviewing.
