Pros

Big company with all the politics, culture, and benefits. Works hard to deliver a good benefit package for employees.

Cons

Good old boy network. This is what Johnson Controls is all about. Management upper and middle it seems is simply looking out for their own agenda and career. Looks like the trend of current reviews fostered by HR is to paint a positive spin...obvious..challenge If you are manager and can make a good spreadsheet and numbers happen you will have a position. Not an environment from observations to foster unique technology talent. Then again, it not about this it seems..but protecting your cushy position. Hang out...show up...collect a six figure pay..who the else cares. Organization is so dis-functional...that no entity is monitoring.

Pros

Decent base pay and fast paced work makes the days go by quickly. Lately the company has been actually investing in their new product lines ever since Joakim became our CEO.

Cons

The compensation is lacking. No bonuses whatsoever for senior level engineers even when they're recognized as a key contributor on the team. We are given our 401k match on March 1st to cover the previous year's matches so you lose out on a lot of the year's market gains. The healthcare coverage is mediocre at best for a fortune 500 company. The raises are still given like it's 2018; 3% is considered a "good" merit increase. This is due to the "forced distribution" merit increase system where only "so many" people can receives "above expectations" raises.
