Pros

Compensation is compatible with other companies in the IT industry. J.C. Penney is still hiring IT professionals while a lot of others have downsized their workforces. Health benefits are okay if you and your family are healthy. It covers several Dr. office visits per year with no cost to you. The work environment at the headquarter in Plano is very good. It has a Fitness Center and Day Care on site. It provides associates discount program, ranging from 10 to 20%, when you shop at J.C. Penney department stores, catalogue, and JCP Direct web site.

Cons

I am still new to the company, and pretty satisfied so far with everything, i.e., work environment, management, colleagues.
