Pros

There are a lot of good and smart people working for JCI. The human resource is what’s keeping the company moving. Should you thrive on a profitable account, you’ll be rewarded with a bonus and a standard raise. The middle management does their best to keep the troops’ moral up during difficult organizational changes.

Cons

As many have pointed out, layoffs are cyclical here. The most disheartening thing about how JCI handles layoffs is very “top down.” As in the executives and upper managers call the shots on what Human Resources will be effected. Additionally, the company has very dated and disjointed project management software applications that really need an integrated system to replace the relics they’ve been nursing along. Finally, sales individuals driving accounts are not familiar with project management processes and JCI needs to establish better project management SOPs; especially in project planning, change management and basic work breakdown structure. So many little projects (less than 40 hours) that prove to be an administrative nightmare for all stakeholders involved.
