Pros

Enjoyed the wider team and the sales team.

Cons

Awful poor management. Team lead by DL and SF made life hell. Witnessed DL make an employee cry. Too many useless interviews and trying to rush a process and bother clients so we met their PnL targets. SF called a 5 min meeting to shout at me for not getting a PO in when I was supposed too apparently.

Pros

There were no pros in my experience with this company.

Cons

In September 2023, Johnson Controls was hit by a ransomware attack that resulted in data theft and disruption to its internal IT infrastructure, costing the company $27 million to respond and remediate. It is a security company with government contracts and couldn't even protect itself. A few days later, I was laid off - I had not even been there 1 year. (The manager who hired me was laid off 4 months after I started. ) The manager that I reported to was not even professional enough to tell me to my face as he and a HR person laid me off on a conference call.
