Pros

Company values, environment and opportunities make it a good place to work. To this current time JCI has continued to be a company of high values and is now facing the challenges that our competition has been addressing. Recently JCI laid off several hundred people and it was done with respect and in my opinion they get high grades for considering the people and the way they treat them.

Cons

Some people get lost in the number of employees working. I feel the few words listed in my statement sum up a struggle that any large company is facing in todays market place.

Pros

Good Team support from colleagues

Cons

High degree of cronism. Amercians only promote Americains, British only promote English, and so on for Germans and French. The rest are considered not to be important enough! You are NOT promoted for your good work and efforts or for your qualifications and the ability to do the job.

Pros

You will learn alot...Most of it will be self taught....Its interesting work....If you can make it here you can make it ANYWHERE,,,,People start there careers at JCI and become extremely successful...if you are smart enough to leave....

Cons

ITS A CORPORATE MONSTER!!! Your branch has no power over corporate decisions...Horrible..Horrible benefits...There bonuses are so 1 sided,,They create bonus structures that involve other areas of there business that you have no control over...Whoever creates jobs at Johnson controls knows how to create the most F@#t up positions..The average employee works 55 to 75 hrs a week and you cannot compare the job positions with any other in the industry because they simply do not exist...especially the LSS..LEAD SYSTEM SPECIALIST POSITION...Stay very clear of this one...Unless you don't like having a life and have no intentions of starting a family...Johnson's only concern is to the SHARE HOLDER...The employee is the farthest thing from there minds!!
