Pros

Met some genuine people willing to collaborate.

Cons

Massive layoffs to placate stock holders. Back stabbing management; use surprise tactics during performance evaluations. Concentrate way too much on political correctness and much less on running the business effectively.

Great Global Company, Poor Local Management

Pros

Johnson Controls has great vision and execution at a Global Level; The strongest divisions being in batteries and Automotive Experience (interior seating). Very good successes in Building Efficieny group as well.

Cons

The local branches lacks supportive management in some locations...specifically the training & supportive resources needed to be successful. No formalized introductory training like most large corporate companies would have. Mafia-like executive management drives fear into their staff instead of fostering open communication.
