Selfishness and Politics is all what I was surrounded with

Infrastructure tools administrator

Pros

It depends who do you work for and with, they may make you feel home and more than welcomed, or they may micro-manage your breath in order for him/her to get promoted. I worked for several years there where I enjoyed every moment I spent at JCI. In my first role, I grew up a lot. However, once I moved to a corporate role, my manager was all about "himself". More than happy yo throw you under the bus, in order for him to shine... So, mixed feelings.

Cons

Again, if you work for the Corporate Department, expect crazy politics and unprofessional behavior from some of the leadership.

Pros

JCI is a great place to learn and grow in your career. They have excellent products and are very strategic in their approach to the market.

Cons

JCI is a large company and with that comes the cons. It can be difficult to complete tasks that should be simple and there are a lot of processes, some of which seem unnecessary.
