Pros

Compensation and benefits are what's standard in the industry. National and Global presence, decent products.

Cons

Poor management at several levels, which explains the high turn over rate. Inexperience technicians and poorly trained testing and inspection technicians, none of the technicians in the branch I worked had the appropriate certification (NICET Certification). In the many years I've worked in this industry, with all due respect my experience with Johnson Controls was the worst. In regards to Diversity & Inclusion at the management level a lot of improvement is needed. From my experience non of the managers I encountered above field supervisors level were people of color.

Pros

Decent pay, good PTO and benefits

Cons

Everything else. ZERO training. They hand you a laptop (which is garbage) and say good luck. There is no "team." Everyone is on their own. The senior techs all reached their peak 20 years ago and don't even know what BACnet is. The bureaucracy is unbearable. Ordering a simple part is nearly impossible. There are so many apps you have to check in on everyday and they care more about those metrics than they care about the service their customers are receiving. If you want to get your butt kicked everyday with zero support at a company that specializes in taking advantage of their customers, this is the job for you.
