Going in the Right Direction

Sales manager

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Competitive base pay, meaningful work, and many opportunities to move or grow within the company. The new CEO is laying out a path the entirety of the organization has been hoping for. We are excited to be part of this transformation. Our office has great workplace culture and strong local leaders that help our teams navigate the complexities of the corporate environment.

Cons

Capped manager incentives, mediocre benefits for the price, and local office workplace environment. Many offices in our area need basic maintenance and cosmetic attention if we are to appear we actually belong to an international 100 company. Often times we are asked to take on additions to our role and increased workload without increased compensation. Key resources being centralized in other countries leading to frustration from US staff and customers.

Say no to Johnson controls

Deupty manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Nothing... No single thing is good in Johnson control

Cons

If you're considering joining Johnson Controls Gurgaon, think twice. My experience here has been extremely disappointing, and I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a healthy and growth-oriented work environment. What’s Bad: Toxic Work Culture: There is absolutely no work-life balance. Employees are expected to be available round the clock, yet appreciation and recognition are almost nonexistent. Poor Management: Leadership lacks vision and accountability. Politics and favoritism thrive, while real talent is ignored. Managers are more interested in blame-shifting than providing guidance or support. No Career Growth: Promotions and appraisals are unfair, delayed, and based on favoritism rather than merit. There is no concrete learning curve and very little scope for professional development. Employee Treatment: HR policies may look good on paper but in reality, there's no transparency or genuine concern for employees’ well-being. Overall Experience: Joining this company has been one of the worst career moves I’ve made. There is no clarity, no appreciation, and no growth path. If you value your peace of mind, career progression, and professional respect, you’re better off avoiding Johnson Controls Gurgaon.
