No truth to the J&J Credo created 100+ years ago

Pros

- A well-recognized name that still carries a lot of weight and authority, mostly because J&J owns so many subsidiaries and companies - Having worked there can open a lot of doors for you.

Cons

- Senior management only cares about profits and maximizing returns - The beautiful statements written by the J&J Brothers in the J&J Credo are not upheld on any level. - J&J buys companies and lays off, I mean "outsources" employees constantly

Pros

Generally constructive environment. Employees are truly looking to serve patients. In theory, work/life balance is highly important. Since Gorsky is CEO, the stock price has risen significantly.

Cons

More and more, cost control and synergies override the human touch. In many places, the Credo is not lived. Quite some personal agendas and unethical decisions. In practice, work/life balance is impossible due to the enormous workload and continued savings on people.

Pros

Great products, work from home options, lots of tools and resources to get your job done which is very helpful

Cons

The Talent Acquisition dept was the most unprofessional dept I have ever worked in. Lots of Drama and gossip especially at Corporate. Recruiters Gossiping about Sourcers and Sourcers Gossiping about recruiters. Manager Gossiping about everyone...its not worth it. The bonuses are based on how popular you are within the team and not based on the work produced. Also- no such thing as Life Work Balance.
