Pros

- A well-recognized name that still carries a lot of weight and authority, mostly because J&J owns so many subsidiaries and companies - Having worked there can open a lot of doors for you.

Cons

- Senior management only cares about profits and maximizing returns - The beautiful statements written by the J&J Brothers in the J&J Credo are not upheld on any level. - J&J buys companies and lays off, I mean "outsources" employees constantly

Pros

The colleagues I worked with were great, friendly, helpful. Because the colleagues were great, I'd love to work there full-time, but this was a short contract.

Cons

The supervisor I was ultimately working for had never worked in digital-related products, in which I had decades of experience. He seemed to be unaware of what every colleague would be telling me (I was interviewing colleagues using a software the manager was intending to propose use for firm-wide). Both the colleagues I interviewed, and the internal technical staff I was speaking with knew the project would not function as he seemed intent on ... forcing(?) it do so. I gave him the resulting report of its users' feedback, and I was finished with my contract. He had gone through 2 other women in this same role, already. And he hired a male after me who delivered esentially the same results. Because I wasn't there, I have no idea of the dream outcome this manager attained, or switched to, later.
