Pros

Was a good company when I first started and the experience is differentiated based on who your direct manager and team are. Benefits were decent, most people are nice, and lots of smart people to work with.

Cons

New CEO and senior leadership are out of touch - demanding longer work hours, unwilling to adjust pay to fair market conditions, and reducing bonus while they sit in their ivory tower with millions of dollars in bonus after quietly laying off large portions of the workforce. The last soul of what J&J used to be died when our CMO left and with him, many executives have left as well. Paraphrasing from a townhall, executive leadership accuses employees are working longer hours because they are working from home and are not as productive. Advancement is based off of who you know and the color of your skin even though J&J tries to create optics that they care about DEI. Employees are criminally underpaid and they pride themselves in squishing levels. This is an empty shell of a company and no longer is a good place to work.
