Pros

Work life balance is great! Flexible work hours which enable you to either work from home or in the office. Free gym and classes available to employees as well! There is a sense of working for the greater good when working in this company, and so there is pride when working.

Cons

There can be some internal politics, as it can be tough to work with people outside of your own department. At times you can feel as if you are just one in a cast of thousands.....and so recognition of your achievements can be far and between.

Pros

Want to work in a company that is recognized worldwide? this is the place. There is no other place that have the kind of brand equity that J&J possesses in its arsenal - basically they 'own' baby, and their diversification makes the company a little bit more secure than the rest.

Cons

This company is now a huge elephant full of politics. The old mantra was "Small company environment, big company impact" - wel, it's really big company bureocracy, small company resources.... The company has become so slow that is even difficult to undertake must do projects or initiatives.

Pros

Benefits seem good, colleagues are respectful of the company and are a pleasure to work with. I was proud of the company as a whole although there are small factions of management that do not work well with employees. If you are with a good division within J&J it is great- you will be happy for life! If your division is devicive, you will feel sorry for every day you come to work!

Cons

Belief in the Credo is a corporate initiative, doesn't trickle down to actual rank & file when you need it. The performance review plan is a joke, you are required to get peer reviews although your immediate supervisor has the last word. I had personal problems with my super- no matter how good my peer reviews were he would override them as well as my raise and/or bonus.
