Pros

I was able to double my resume in terms of important projects that would help me land my next job. Program was well laid out thought our final presentation was all hype but had no real benefit to our performance scores. Great company though, would consider working there.

Cons

This has by far the lowest retention rate of any program for internship/co-op ever. Do not take this position if you are hoping to get a full-time offer upon graduation. It is extremely rare for an offer to be given to an individual who has only one co-op. Performance scores are not judged well, if it is your first co-op you're almost guaranteed to fall in the (5-6) range out of 9. This usually allows you to get a second co-op but it is not enough to get a full-time job.

Pros

great products, global company with many opportunities for career growth

Cons

No work life balance, crazy working hours, getting emails from managers late in the evening and during weekends. Low recognition and appreciation of field force. Low salary. Very competitive environment - internally, people don't support each. Credo values are followed externally (working with physicians, patients) but NOT internally because employees can be treated like trash, with no respect.

Pros

Supportive co-workers Great benefits and employee support through health and wellness Very interesting work - feel good about working for a company that helps people Company encourages work-life balance

Cons

Very structured merit/review system based on a curve; only so many people can "excel" It's not what you know, but who you know and J&J is all about relationships - if you don't make good connections or get a sponsor, you won't go far Significant structure in place to ensure work-life balance however, depending on role and/or manager - how that plays out can vary significantly
