Pros

Well compensated, good benefits. Great for anyone in any position who wants to learn accounting and business metrics. If you are not in finance, you will be.

Cons

Sr. Leadership is not held accountable. They are focused on near term metrics that have a devastating effect on the long term success of the business. Senior leaders are satisfied with incremental business with low profit margins. These leaders are not held accountable for poor business decisions -- instead, when it becomes apparent, they are more likely rotated to another part of the company.

Pros

Not many these days. Some great, dedicated, smart and innovative people (which they are losing at an alarming rate). Pay is just ok for what you do. Benefits average.

Cons

Shareholders are number one priority. You are part of a headcount and nothing more. Regardless of your ability, talent, dedication and loyalty, you will be terminated if you don't fit in to the latest hare-brained reorganization or if the numbers don't look that good for the quarter. JCI used to be a forward thinking company and invest in its people. Not anymore.

Pros

the pay is o.k. for the area.

Cons

They do not care about their employees at all. Their only concern is how much money they make. If they have to injure you to make money that is what they will do. As an employee you are required to work as long and as hard as they say. You are the last thing they care about. I still work at JCI but I would not recomed it to anyone. They are trying to import one more thing from China, SWEAT SHOPS!!!
