Pluspunten

Opportunity for growth. Good salaries and pay. Good co-workers. Good benefits.

Minpunten

Upper Management is completely disconnected from the reality of what happens in the customer-facing operations. Their initiatives are seldom, if ever based on actual research, mostly just "hunches" and beliefs by people who have worked 30+ years in JCI but have no idea of the business today, nor intention of adapting to changes themselves. Very disorganized. Departments compete with one another and focus a lot of their efforts into being able to point the finger somewhere else instead of on being productive. Sadly, this is a product of the inconsistent and out-of-touch requests from upper management. Duplication of efforts is rampant. Be ready to work on the same initiative or project 3-5 teams, lead by different people and/or groups (sometimes with partially the same people!) multiple times to accommodate justifying their position or project. Currently focused on making some areas of the business call customers in mass, for no other reason other than to make calls, despite data showing it has a negative correlation. You will likely NEVER receive a proper 1:1 feedback from upper management. They simply have no idea what is going on and are not interested in finding out.

Pluspunten

Pro's depend on where you sit in the organization. Broadly, JCI is a focused, mission-driven organization leading sustainability and smart-building innovations worldwide. The technology is strong, very strong, we have a data-driven culture, and the work is meaningful. There are endless routes to professional development (you just need to put in the work), and you'll be exposed to teams and people of all walks of life from around the world. JCI's people are its greatest asset. There is a huge collection of really excellent people here. If you enjoy how that sounds, you'll enjoy working here.

Minpunten

The higher you climb, the more complex the organizational layers get. The closer you are to the customer, however, the less you'll see that complexity. Essentially, the Con's depend on where you sit in the organization. Broadly speaking, JCI sets high expectations that require resilience and adaptability. Your focus is occasionally taxed by news and moves from other levels of the org. You need to train yourself to focus on what matters most to you and not let what you can't control affect what you can control.

Pluspunten

Decent pay, good PTO and benefits

Minpunten

Everything else. ZERO training. They hand you a laptop (which is garbage) and say good luck. There is no "team." Everyone is on their own. The senior techs all reached their peak 20 years ago and don't even know what BACnet is. The bureaucracy is unbearable. Ordering a simple part is nearly impossible. There are so many apps you have to check in on everyday and they care more about those metrics than they care about the service their customers are receiving. If you want to get your butt kicked everyday with zero support at a company that specializes in taking advantage of their customers, this is the job for you.
