Pros
Very professional and ethical, better to fair compensation, J&J Reputation. J&J provides great training programs within company and outside. Six Sigma Training green belt and black belt trainings were the best. Each year, management encouraged to attend shows and seminars. Compensation were fair and competative in the industry. Management made effort to recognize employee with special awards and promotions to a degree. J&J has a very competent work force, which I only realized after changing to a different company.
Cons
Huge organization difficult to be noticed. Skillful political dealings are important if not the most important in getting ahead. Some divisions' management were inplace for a long time and forms a local culture that may be different from division to division. Actually, each division was acquired by J&J and was integrated into J&J family of companies, thus they all still have some of their own identity left. J&J more and more (at my experience) hires from outside instead promoting within. When it does, it tends to hire over-qualified people. If you are already a director, they offer you a manager title, even though the pay might be higher. But this creates a signal that people within will never get next level job (you should be a director first before you can get a manager title) Job pressure and stress can be high and some may not take it well.
