Ethicon Engineer Reviews

Pros

Johnson and Johnson's credo influences every aspect of employee life. Employees feel a sense of deep purpose as we develop technologies to improve patient care. Teams tend to be cooperative rather than competitive (with each other). The atmosphere is congenial and professional. The benefits are amazing. The company cares for its employees on a holistic level. Continuing professional development is encouraged. It is a place where people want to stay. The company is striving to have an employee base that represents its customer base. Diversity and inclusion is an important aspect of life here.

Cons

I really enjoyed my time with Ethicon, but sadly had some bad experiences that were simply not acceptable for me. Others' might have different experiences, and I hope mine was an isolated case. During my years in Ethicon, I had a serious lack of work-life balance, due to high demands. Demands were so high that my mental well being was impacted. The issues were escalated to HR and Management on multiple times, without a needed resolution identified or communicated. In addition, the company rejected to provide special accommodations. As I progressed with the company, I perceived what seems to be an encouragement of management by fear. Overall, it felt as if leadership encourages driving results at the cost of employees' well being.
