Pros

Working at Johnson Controls was great. My past job experience was perfectly suited for what I was doing and I was given freedom to grow.

Cons

The priorities of management would shift constantly. One day you would be working on meeting a certain deadline, then the next day you were told to a different deadline.

Pros

Friendly atmosphere for the most part. There truly is an open door policy. Customer satisfaction is top priority here, we seem to bend over backwards and sometime take it in the rear for our customers. Community is huge at JCI! Fund raising for their Community is in the Millions given.

Cons

Nothing ever set in stone. After 13 years of working on 1 st shift I was forced to go to 3rd because HR decided that they needed to reconstruct placement. Unless you have a degree there is no way to move up in the company: work experience and common knowledge is not even looked at compared to being wet behind the ears and just book smart. No one ever acknowledges you when you save the company money.

Pros

This probably varies greatly depending on the team, but its a pretty low stress place to work, not much micromanagement, co-workers are generally great to work with.

Cons

Benefits and wages are average at best. Advancement is practically non-existent, the company would rather bring in outside talent rather than prepare existing employees to move up. Red tape is very thick. Job will be farmed out to a low cost country if its practical to do so, or outsourced entirely.
