Pros

Due to it's size, their buying power is excellent. They also have deep pockets to make up for mistakes. The rank-and-file are mostly good people.

Cons

JCI is the worst run business I have ever had the displeasure of working for. Gross inefficiencies and a top-down management approach plage the organization. One hand rarely knows what the other is doing, and they compete with one another. Don't be fooled by it's posted core values; there is a terrible corporate culture.
