Pros

If you relish very large global company environments then Johnson Controls is for you. The higher up the Management chain you are then the more rewarded you are. The treatment of women however is far from ideal and women in Europe hit a ceiling at mid executive level.

Cons

The lack of communications and lack of ability and capability of European HR departments is appalling. Employees at bottom end of scale tend to be overworked and underpaid but remain intensely loyal.

Right now, I can't think of any Pros It is a culture that is TOXIC

Cons

The current work environment raises several concerns: Excessive micromanagement Constantly shifting KPIs Aggressive communication style Mandatory 5-day in-office policy Work-Life Balance is horrible Overall, it’s not a supportive or rewarding place to work. These issues are impacting morale and productivity.

It's a trap

Pros

The employees are friendly and will help you if needed. They will let you know what not to do before you even do it. I made many friends working here even after being relocated 2000 mileage away from home.

Cons

Unfortunately for me, I was fired illegally for being autistic. My supervisor was writing down every tiny thing possible to get me out the door. I was brand new to the low voltage industry and my manager didn't seem to care to help motivate me to do better, but instead scare me into doing worse. This all happened because I brought up I was autistic and my supervisor thought I wasn't gonna grow in the company. So she fired me. I don't recommend working for this company as their work ethics are unethical.
