Pros

This role is primarily at a large technology company one of the big 5. . I am not embedded, but spend 100% of my time working on only their projects. As such, I have very little to do with the day to day at JCI. Integrators can be very bureaucratic and slow to accomplish tasks.

Cons

given that this role is remote and fully dedicated to a large client, any changes by the client to the relationship can impact you with little to no warning and regardless of your performance. Recently we lost 26 positions within a large contract due to simply bieng outbid for the dedicated workforce.

Pros

Decent base pay and fast paced work makes the days go by quickly. Lately the company has been actually investing in their new product lines ever since Joakim became our CEO.

Cons

The compensation is lacking. No bonuses whatsoever for senior level engineers even when they're recognized as a key contributor on the team. We are given our 401k match on March 1st to cover the previous year's matches so you lose out on a lot of the year's market gains. The healthcare coverage is mediocre at best for a fortune 500 company. The raises are still given like it's 2018; 3% is considered a "good" merit increase. This is due to the "forced distribution" merit increase system where only "so many" people can receives "above expectations" raises.
