Pros

Over my 10 years with JCI, the company was highly supportive and fair to me. I had multiple opportunities for growth and development. I was always struck by the high degree of ethical standards that we lived by, led by the examples set by senior leadership. I was very proud to say that I worked for JCI.

Cons

I was very happy during my time at JCI. However, the events of the recent past have soured my view. The CEO should have been fired for his inappropriate relationship with an external executive coach. I was afforded the opportunity to be coached by her firm, and it now appears that such interactions were not kept confidential. This violates my trust. I am mystified why the BOD did not view this as gross misconduct.

Pros

Decent pay, good PTO and benefits

Cons

Everything else. ZERO training. They hand you a laptop (which is garbage) and say good luck. There is no "team." Everyone is on their own. The senior techs all reached their peak 20 years ago and don't even know what BACnet is. The bureaucracy is unbearable. Ordering a simple part is nearly impossible. There are so many apps you have to check in on everyday and they care more about those metrics than they care about the service their customers are receiving. If you want to get your butt kicked everyday with zero support at a company that specializes in taking advantage of their customers, this is the job for you.
