      Pros

      Good and knowledgeable co-workers. Little to no intra-company politics.

      Cons

      With the merger, almost all of Corporate division from Tyco lost their jobs, as the headquarters moved to Milwaukee. Only ex-CEO got the best deal and will continue to be the CEO of the combined company in two years.

      Pros

      The coworkers are great, but some have given into the attitude of "that is not my responsibility" and "that is the way it has always been done". This is a major red flag for me since I like to get things done and am open to changes.

      Cons

      Absolute incompetent middle management. Constantly blaming each other for inability to resolve or be accountable for project issues. Upper and middle management are constantly getting caught with their pants down. Literally.

      Extremely Volatile

      Pros

      They are a very large company so you know they're going to be around for a while (not going bankrupt and disappearing if a deal turns sour).

      Cons

      Johnson Controls is a very aggressive company. They set extremely aggressive goals for sales, profit margin and growth, regardless of market trends. When the goals are not met, they have layoffs (every fiscal year). This instability has led to a toxic environment where people are constantly trying to protect their own jobs and fight for their survival.
