Pros

The company has great flexibility with salaried employees time, nice on-site amenities (gym/day care/Walgreens/Doctor onsite).

Cons

Since the RonJon era, the company has gone downhill fast. Working in the IT arena with the new CIO and her circle of trust, it became unbelievable stressful. New management has no desire to help employees grow their careers. Their focus is bottom line PERIOD. Slashing costs (headcount), early retirement, placing people on improvement plans for no reason other than to get them terminated or moved to another area, no direction, moving jobs over to India; these are just a few of the items witnesses during my tenure. If you are in IT looking at working at JCP; you have been warned. There are so many other opportunities in the DFW area where you will be treated with respect; why take the chance at JCP?
