Pros

Great people throughout the organization. The Power Solutions division, in particular, has a close knit all-for-one/one-or-all vibe. We are a large organization, with a ton of opportunities for people who can drive their own career growth.

Cons

The layoffs have begun in earnest. It’s obvious that our former CEO sold out to the highest bidder, shoved wads of money in his pockets, and is now living the highlife while JCI is dismantled by our new CEO. It’s sad to see strong performing colleagues’ jobs being eliminated without rationale (other than cost cutting). Benefits reductions (401K match reductions, delays in merit increases, health care offerings diminished) and multiple layers of layoffs are all strategies that Tyco (and George Oliver) have deployed with other companies that they have taken over.

Pros

* Remote * Pay was decent

Cons

* Just when you think you are doing well, they change everything and you have to learn it yesterday and your KPIs take a dump. * Your thoughts and ideas do not matter. Do what your told, or else! * You're sick? Too bad. Get to work. There is no such thing as flex time. * Out for maternity leave? You had better perform as soon as you start back and know all 200+ changes that happened while you were out, or else! * Dictatorship, animosity between managers, branches, and branch management.
