Pros

The wide reaches of the company provides potential opportunity to advance careers. The name J&J still appears as respectable in the community-with exception of employees. They offer modest financial incentives as compared to the industry standards. The company as a whole is fairly stable but that does not apply to various divisions.

Cons

Unstable market and the market dynamic changing for the worst, if business demands the headcount to be reduced-so be it. They no longer work to find "displaced" individuals jobs within the network of companies. Many of the divisions no longer value employees. Contrary to company self-promotion, questionable ethics for self preservation run strong in J&J during this time of economic crisis.

Pros

The credo as an operational foundation provides clear guidance on how we want to conduct business on all levels. Diverse operating companies unified in one corporation -- helps in financial risk mitigation, also helps provide abundance of opportunities for mobility and development, can leverage expertise in virtually every field.

Cons

Very large corporation can leave you feeling like a cog in the giant machine -- sometimes the upper management behavior contributes to that. Fiefdoms are present. Job demands can be high and sometimes the compensation doesn't feel in line with the expectations. Management often leaves employees feelings as though they should be grateful for being employed vs. thanking and compensating them for the contributions that they make. It is often feels like decisions are driven by ego and power plays vs. what's right for the customer or business.
