      Pros

      Great team and coworkers. Mostly reachable goals

      Cons

      Low pay. No market adjustments for current employees. I just completed hiring for my team. 50% of my direct reports now make more than I do... The other 50% are just below. Leadership doesn't seem interested in adjusting my comp any time soon. just delaying . "Wait until after January and we will see what we can do". Recently got a promotion and Received a very small increase... This would have been a perfect opportunity for JCI to bring my compensation to a competitive rate but they stated "guidelines" only allow a small raise. I get great annual reviews. I have tried everything. Time to look for other opportunities outside JCI...most likely with a competitor.

      Pros

      Decent base pay and fast paced work makes the days go by quickly. Lately the company has been actually investing in their new product lines ever since Joakim became our CEO.

      Cons

      The compensation is lacking. No bonuses whatsoever for senior level engineers even when they're recognized as a key contributor on the team. We are given our 401k match on March 1st to cover the previous year's matches so you lose out on a lot of the year's market gains. The healthcare coverage is mediocre at best for a fortune 500 company. The raises are still given like it's 2018; 3% is considered a "good" merit increase. This is due to the "forced distribution" merit increase system where only "so many" people can receives "above expectations" raises.
