Advice to Senior Management

It was fine in my opinion.

GREAT experience if you are finance accounting major

Cons

It is quite difficult for an intern to be hired as fulltime/FLDP, as they are competing against Co-ops who are working at the company for 6 months vs the 11 weeks.

Pros

Hire technically competent leaders in IT, and treat employees with respect

Opportunity to grow
Great benefits
Great culture

Cons

The internship experience wasn't challenging enough and didn't give a lot of work

Pros

Compensation, benefits, & likelihood of industry always having a consumer.

Cons

Senior management has made choices to drive short term profit that will lead to tough time for future senior leadership and the company's employees. It is very difficult to get fired from J&J, so many co-workers will quit before the work is truly done or, they will claim that more things are beyond their control than actually are.

Advice to Senior Management

Read the credo and actually follow it. Even if that means you sacrifice short term profits (and your personal bonus), the company will thrive long-term if the credo is followed.

Pros

There are a lot of opportunities to move around

Cons

Too many people stay in the same position for too long.

Advice to Senior Management

None
