Pros

Global Exposure – Working at Johnson Controls offers opportunities to collaborate across regions, giving valuable insights into international business operations. Structured Processes – The company has well-defined systems and SOPs, especially in finance and payments, which help streamline work and reduce ambiguity. Learning Opportunities – Access to internal training platforms and cross-functional projects can support career development, especially if you're transitioning into treasury or financial management. Work-Life Balance – Many teams offer flexibility and a supportive environment, which helps maintain a healthy work-life balance

Cons

Limited Career Progression in Certain Roles – Some functions, like PTP Payments, may have slower growth or fewer internal mobility options unless you actively seek transitions. Bureaucratic Decision-Making – Being a large organization, approvals and changes can take time due to multiple layers of management. Compensation Could Be More Competitive – Salary and benefits may not always match industry benchmarks, especially for niche finance roles. Technology Gaps in Some Areas – While some departments are modernized, others still rely on legacy systems which does hinder efficiency.

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.
