Pros

Johnson Controls is a fantastic company to work for! The PTO and holiday schedule are generous, and I’ve found the work-life balance to be exceptional. As a Digital Campaign Specialist, I feel valued and empowered to try new strategies and technologies. The team is supportive and open to new ideas.

Cons

Honestly, I can’t think of any cons to mention.

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.
