Pros

Work-Life Balance: This is not a company that will make you work 60-hour weeks, at least for my position. You work during business hours, and only outside of that when something legitimately requires it. Good pay: I was paid a competitive wage for someone with my job at JCI. Plus annual bonuses, I was provided a living wage, and the ability to save and invest. Culture of Communication: You are able and encouraged to work across teams to accomplish goals. There is a vibrant social culture that makes it easy to find the people you need to talk to to get things done.

Cons

Poor Vision: JCI acquires a lot of startups, and the leaders fail to fully understand what they have bought or how to use it. Risk of getting siloed: Career growth can stagnate if you find yourself be to be one of the only employees capable of doing your job. They are not eager to cross-train. Culture of Blame: Failure is punished instead of learned from, so nobody takes responsibility for their failures, leading to an endless circle of finger-pointing. Sub-par Benefits: The health insurance leaves a lot to be desired. If you have a lot of medical needs, don't choose the high-deductible plan.

Pros

Nice working colleague in this particular office . Flexible on clock in and click out. Not so strict but wfh not encouraged.

Cons

Medical benefits can be improved. No wfh though we have valid reason. Vss is happening very often. Job security is a big question mark. Bonus not even 1 month will be given. Work stress from China HQ is burden sometimes. Peers from Singapore office are very racist. Playing politics to ruin people's reputation if they don't like someone.. Singapore finance is terrible...Mr and Mrs J and H.. If you know the name, just be careful with these ppl..
