Pros

Decent pay, decent benefits (used to be better), good cafeteria. Used to be a really great place to work with amazing benefits and culture, but that fades by significant degrees every time some carpet bagger executive is brought on board.

Cons

Upper management only care about impressing the shareholders. Employees are cattle to them. Lower level managers can only do so much to mitigate this. Benefits have been reduced multiple times since 2008. Employees who have been there the longest are automatically on the chopping block. Culture is shifting from small town startup in the Bible belt to whatever the executives brought onboard through buying out other companies are bringing with them (something very different). Scruples and dignity are casualties in JHA's transition to being a big, cosmopolitan company that wants to sit at the same table as Fiserv (treats its employees better than JHA, by the way) and is willing to sell its soul to get there.

What you’ve described here does not align with our core values nor guiding philosophy of doing the right thing, doing whatever it takes, and having fun. We believe these to be important to our business and regularly solicit feedback from our associates so that we can ensure these values are being maintained.
