Pros

Great company in terms of vision and values that are cascaded from the top. Dedicated branch teams which go the extra mile with desire to be succeed for each other.

Cons

Lack of meaningful strategies - lots of political box ticking exercises to meet targets and satisfy shareholders. Internally focused to the detriment of customer service. In the US JC can operate on the basis they are a well known brand, here in the UK market this approach is seen as arrogance as we are certainly not the big players our prices suggest.

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.
