Pros

At the start (10 years ago) it was a great place to work. I still have a couple of friends from the days where we were real teams, part of the team still exists. There was a little oppertunity for me. There are plenty of places to park, and I expect many more by January 2008. As there is not a set time to start work, there is no harrasment for showing up a couple of minutes later than the norm.

Cons

Very limited opportunities unless you are in a click e.g. U of M Graduate. Wall Street knows what is going on before the employees While the morale survey provides a positive message, everyone filled in the correct answers as not to go to all of the improvement meetings. Only a very few managers provide recognition, most provide criticism (in front of others just to make themselves look good) Senior Leadership, only looking after the stock-holders and Wall Street. Just look where that put the banking industry Work life balance (unless you are in a click) is almost non-existant. Manager's will just keep dumping workloads and unrealistic timelines to make themselves look good at meeting. Fairness & Respect, again if you are not in a click, forget the fairness and respect and expect to do all of the work. The worst part is when a person leaves JCI it is Orwellian - they become on non-person and it is not correct to remeber they ever were employed at JCI.

Pros

Had a lot of flexibility with management in choosing and outlining the projects I wanted to work on

Cons

A lot of the more interesting IT work was reserved for a few set of teams, felt insular in that regard
