Pros

Coworkers are like a family. Most people are very nice and will try to be helpful. Depending on your boss, there is flexibility in work hours so you can have work life balance.

Cons

Difficult to get anything done, company says they are innovative, but they really aren't. Women (if promoted, since it is an old boys club) are promoted based on looks, not on abilities, or results.

Pros

JCI is a very results-oriented company. Managers will not micro-manage you if you're doing your job and delivering positive results. Although JCI has a fiercely competitive culture *see Con's below) the company also has a very family friendly culture and encourages a balanced work-family lifestyle. I can honestly say that I love working for JCI.

Cons

JCI is a Fortune 100 company that has undergone several "reorganizations" since I started with them 3 years ago. This is common with large-diversified companies but is still frustrating. Also, with these "reorganizations" they are known to "merge" regions and let go of the least-senior counterpart within the two regions.
