fearful of the words innovation, ideation, social media, organizational microblogging etc

Advice to Senior Management

Managerial Innovation essential - vertical communication - especially upwards should be enabled, innovation efforts are lacking, please ensure there are no biases in recruitment practises - coz it causes a very negative word of mouth publicity.

independence in decision making, the opportunity to learn, peer group that you work with and the fact that the company offers good work-life balance

Advice to Senior Management

The management at Johnson & Johnson should continue to get involved in the nitty gritties of the business and lead the talent management programs

Pros

Brand, salary, perks are good. Initially, every body meets you and welcomes you into the fold. Great atmosphere in the first few days-important when u start

Cons

Long hours expected, beurocracy is ever present, senior management thinks they are kings and expected to be treated so. I have seen trainees work from 8 am -10 pm and sing songs of work culture, love the company as they kiss *** to get noticed

Advice to Senior Management

Let loose, its not an ego game
