Pros

Salary was good and rapid career development was offered for those who fitted the mould.

Cons

J&J prides itself on its Credo (essentially a mission statement) and they use it to promote the idea of an ethical organisation that is centred around the employee. However it is totally disregarded by the management on a day to day basis and discussion or creativity is actively discouraged. Anybody questioning the status quo is shown the door. Just as leaders of a personality cult use mind games to control their minions, the J&J senior management would deny departmental meetings ever took place and those who dared to question any unethical action were accused of not following the Credo!

Pros

Good benefits, pension (after 5 years), strong focus on competitiveness, supportive team.

Cons

I am a few months into the "training" for EP, and it is genuinely terrible. Work/life balance is awful, the expectation is to work 50+ hours per week, including arriving early, staying late, and doing homework outside of that. I put quotations around training because it isn't training- it's almost entirely self-learning using outdated, disorganized, and confusing e-modules.
