A Day at JCI went very productive for me. In general, a typical day at work had the following events for me like understanding the functioning of different departments, products and solutions, documents involved, protocols involved, understanding the ongoing projects and visiting sites to see the installation and commissioning of technical systems, Attending a sales meeting, understanding customer's requirements on the project and customising our solutions accordingly, Understanding the functioning of supporting teams like Supply Chain Management (SCM) and many.
As a fresh graduate from college, I had a lot of things to learn. Almost every minute gave me something to learn generally as well as technically. As a Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET), I had wide opportunities to learn about the MNC Work Culture, Functioning of different verticals of the organisation and also about the products and solutions, the company offers.
Management was very efficient and able to understand and absorb our potential as and when required. The best part was that they were extremely comfortable to work with.
Co-workers were very friendly and very understanding. They made the workplace more interested to work. And as a GET, I had to learn but only from them. So all my learnings about the business were from them. They were informative.
As a GET, I completely enjoyed my stint with JCI, as it gave almost all the stuffs that a fresh graduate need to understand. The hardest part and the mos

Having worked for 12.5 years in Johnson Controls, I have learned many things which helped me professionally as well as personally. My way of approaching day today activities has got changed which has given me the confidence of working under pressure, meeting targets, managing difficult situation etc., I have been trained here to manage Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivables, General Ledgers, indirect tax issues, etc., independently...
Here the management is always motivating the employees to take decision which will be supported by the top management in its implementation.
The most enjoyable part of the job is, getting the support from colleagues so that the workload is getting shared and not-felt by the individual.
Hardest part of the job ....with the support of the team members...jobs become easy to complete...so its hard to say about hardest part of the job.
ProsInsuranace coverage including family members for Rs.500000/-, weekly 5 days work etc.
They will hire you and make you wait for 7-8 months and after that, they will ask you to leave on that same day. No job security at all.
Not a professional organization, dont know of other branches are, but Indian counterpart of JCI is surely very unprofessional. After hiring on the next day you may listen that " You have been hired wrongly, actually we dont need any new employee now " . That time you would wonder, what is my fault, I have left a secured job and joined JCI thinking that this might be a good organisation. After that, they will not involve you in any thing, you shall keep on sitting days after days. You might hear from you super boss that " for you I could not hire one of my relative, be ready you have to go". And suddenly one day you might hear from HR that, you have to leave on that same day. This is the culture of Johnson Controls. Now they have started sacking so many employees. I would not recommend any body to join this bad organisation.
You are free to work in your own style, growth is very very slow and highly expecting with providing very little opportunities.
They give no training to third party employees
They pay you so much such that if you leave the company nobody will pay that salary.
They will spoil your career by giving money.
The managers only call you for payment updates, There is no technical person to support or follow up on the progress. This the very bad loophole in the company. When suddenly things blow up by the customer then managers will call you and kill you. But the truth is they were also sleeping without following up.
Prosexpense are cleared on actual, flexible timings, you need to keep the customer happy so they don't bother if you are in workplace or not
ConsThird party employment, very slow promotion rates, they never put employees on rolls, good in playing blame game
My profile related work was good and enjoyable, were more things were taught and more I got to learned from my job.
The management was not that good enough for more then 5 year, earlier before management was good and I used to really enjoy my work, we used to learn more and more thing in work.
The hardest part of the job was, when every one did their same profile work including me self was not give the bonus stating " underperformed" and when the management wanted to reward me along with my team for the securing the million order I was not in the list. This was the Hardest day of my life.
The most enjoyable work with my colloquies pertaining to my job was when most of the things were getting done, and we used laugh after doing most the R and D work.
I worked on a project on Machine Learning to develop codes and validate those results with CFD results.
Day in office starts with collecting research publications recently and going through those publication papers. Learn and develop codes to use the algorithms and view the results.
Work-Life balance is highly appreciated in Johnson Controls. I personally liked it. Given a chance I would join Johnson Controls.
In my experience, every project will have hurdles and the way you face them is what makes you different from others. Research is always hardest part yet enjoyable.
Management supports employee a lot with respect to personal and as well professional issues.
Actually Johnson controls one of the best company for HVAC and controls field. You can learn and improve your self from here. But some of the teams (not all) not following the work culture and work life balance of employees. They were loaded to you on every time. If you like the work then it's ok work otherwise you get mental stress. Main disadvantage of JCI was give the salary based on previous experience only no standard salary structure. Even your colleague will get double salary than you but both do the same work. Yearly hike was very low

A multifacted, challenging role - not for everyone
My shift was the "5-day shift rotation pattern", which is the (mostly) daytime only shift pattern, which I believe is roughly defined as being any given 9 hour period somewhere between 7 AM and 7 PM. On this shift pattern, it is a 40 hour week which includes working 5 days a week total (sometimes including weekends). A typical day entails answering roughly 200 phone calls, give-or-take and dependent on your confidence, skill, and other sundry factors. This includes two 10 minute breaks and a 1-hour lunch break that can be no more than 4 hours apart, so this essentially means you're working day is 7 hours 40 minutes long in total.
What I learned was how to use service booking software and alarm monitoring software. The software that's used for booking engineer visits is called SMS (Service Management System) which is a rather outdated, and occasionally slow, keyboard-only program that will most likely take at least 1 month to get used to using to the point of any reasonable confidence, at least in my experience. For the first month, it will likely be the case that you will be taking calls and panicking on getting the right thing done on this software as it is a bit of a learning curve. I will advise you to try not to worry (although I'm aware this can be easier said than done), try to be professionally assertive on the phone. Should the customer begin to get impatient, simply explain that you're new and still learning. I found that it genuinely DOES help to do this. The mo

I worked as an intern for Johnson Controls for years prior to being hired full time. And what made me join the company was solely because of the people at my branch. I didn't have a huge passion for HVAC but they were extremely nice and easy to get along with. But my biggest mistake was that interning for a company is far different to being an employee.
When you're an intern you can write off any issues you have because you have to be there for only a few months and once you get tired of the position, it's almost time for you to go back to school anyway. But when you're full time not only is that company a big part of your life now, but the responsibilities go up significantly. And I had to learn that the hard way.
My biggest issue with Johnson Control was that they were extremely unorganized when it came to training new recruits. This wasn't just a branch issue but a company wide issue. The training programs were out of date and did very little to teach me about my position. Not to mention once covid happened they just cancelled it anyway.
And while I loved my team, it was very easy to tell that my coworkers and management team had no idea how to train a new employee. I couldn't help but feel neglected. My coworkers didn't feel too strongly to help me out with my work. As they rarely came to check in on me with projects they assigned to me, and when I did work up the courage to ask for help, often they would just forget about me a few minutes later. Requiring me to
Where do I begin, the Interview process was simple, but tricked into how far you actually have to travel to certain places, they claim that they will pay for your parking and tolls. You can ask how to set up an app to get refunded but they do not demonstrate or tell you how, they just tell you to just "call this guy" who never picks up. The apps that they use to show you've arrived on site and the locations of the places are usually wrong and give you a completely different address. Also if you do not show you have arrived on site a call from a supervisor was sure to follow immediately with no so much concern about you personally but why haven't you logged in yet. This also cuts away from work time to log in an establish your location, the time you started, and all other things that aren't relevant, then the costumer doesn't understand why us workers aren't testing till 7:30 or later because we have to follow up these apps. Also you can get suspended if you are reported for talking on your phone wile driving, most of the time it was management you were talking to and then forced to to a safety driving seminar. In 6 months I have put 30,000 miles on my personal car, the management is so uncoordinated, I would leave my house around 5:45 - 6 am to be at a job that starts at 7. I would travel a good portion of the state, to help a lead inspector, only to be told minutes after arriving that I need to go somewhere else, usually a good 30 min+ drive away.

I wanted to wait awhile before responding to Indeed's requests for feedback. I hoped that after all the dust settled, I would have gained some perspective on my time with Johnson Controls. This is just one person's opinion and you can choose to take as you wish.
JCI has three domains; Fire, HVAC & Security. I have nothing but good things to say about the people I met, spoke & worked with from the Fire & HVAC sides of the house. To be fair, I'm only observing these departments from a distance. The same cannot be said for the Security side (formerly ADT & Tyco). It was apparent during the "all hands calls" that the HVAC & Fire domains paid the bills, and Security was the step child. Subsequently the training and information was focused to benefit them.
The first few months were decent, mostly training videos and a few opportunities to shadow with my tenured colleagues. Finally received my company car (that you pay $240 for) after 6 weeks. I really enjoyed getting out and meeting the clients in my territory. The formal training focused heavily on sales techniques and the sales process and touched briefly on the product offerings and skimmed the programs/software we would be using to conduct daily business (writing proposals/estimates & booking jobs). The programs were old and always locking up, you'd never know if it was something you did or if it was the program. There was definitely a learning curve to the aged software and only a few people that understood it enough to tea

A bunch of snakes and poor Management
I worked as a counter sales associate and honestly liked the job, a lot. Great benefits and work hours and decent pay but without question, the worst manager I have ever worked for in my career. I should say management in general because even the manager's manager wouldn't back you up regardless of whose was at fault.
As I mentioned, I really liked the job and the customers and I think most of them liked me. I received many awards and certificates of appreciation while at JCI for outstanding customer service. I performed all the functions described in the position and feel like I did the job well. My downfall, a lack of HVAC experience which is why I had to "chime in" considering nowhere in the ad did I see mention of HVAC experience required. When I interviewed for the position the manager knew I didn't have any real HVAC experience but what I did have was a great customer service background and a great reputation for getting the job done and always making sure the customer was satisfied.
The formal training for such a large company is very lack luster, in fact it's not there at all. The manager had many years of experience working for a couple other HVAC manufacturer's. As I mentioned I didn't really have any HVAC experience and they provided no training except giving you manuals and I am a hands on person. I can't do something once every couple of months and expect to remember all the details without my "cheat sheet". When I used that, I had no issues. The problem is
Can be a rewarding place.... But be prepared to be mislead and preached at.
I worked for JCI Saskatoon for about 5 years. I originally accepted a position as a foreman and was given a good wage through the union agreement. Presented with many challenges which I enjoyed, I was rewarded for good achievements financially. A majority of your coworkers will be very pleasant to work with. The company itself is very profit and growth driven, as to be expected for any public traded company. They will do whatever it takes to generate revenue for their shareholders, a good front is put up for ethics and safety, but not perhaps overly truthful when reviewed from within. The greater focus on profit will come over ethics. If you are willing to look the other way a little or wear rose colored glasses... you certainly have an opportunity to advance.
Things to beware; safety is preached by leadership, but not followed by the same leadership (false sense of safety). You will be provided with more than ample safety equipment, but no one to instruct or guide you in the safe use of it (local all the way to the regional safety managers). You will be given a DVD to watch, that will be your safety orientation and you will sign a document/release form of you being oriented.
Leadership will "read" what they are to say to you, coming from the corporate head office during annual events (Vision Week), which perhaps shows that leadership doesn't buy what they are trying to sell???
Overall, they simply lack on being organized. From new hire training/orientation all the way to the
Prosgood union wages, uniforms, safety boots, commission paid on profitable work
Consdisorganization of leadership, inconsistent hours, false front for safety
Current local management is disengaged from sales team. No guidance, no training, lack of fairness, no help. Promises made and rarely ever delivered. Major changes made without notice.
Beware this is not an outside sales job which it should be.
Management would rather have you in the office than out selling. Instead, scheduling ineffective sales meetings. Management lacks knowledge of the position, industry and especially sales skills. Do not expect help, there will be none. One sales team member was without a working computer for 4 months while being expected to still perform their job. Also they say you have a territory....you don't. Other team members will be calling on your supposed customers or management will just decide to switch customers around without your knowledge. Beware management will promise you a local territory but you will be left with what the other sales team members do not want. However it will be sold to you in your interview as there is so much opportunity! Also local management will not allow sales team members to make sales decisions on their own when selling to current or potential customers regardless of experience. Expect to have both hands tied behind your back and waiting for a decision from local management if it is worth the company's time to pursue a sale (by that time the customer has made the decision to go with another company). If a sale/customer is of significant size expect that management will insist that they need to have separat
ProsJohnson Controls (name)
ConsPoor local sales management, false opportunities, cant make own sales decisions
Toxic work environment, overtime for the rest of your life.
The reason why I left Johnson Controls was simple, they don't care about their employees.
Don't get wrong, there are people who work there that care about the employees, but the overall company has proven to me they just don't get it.
Almost non-stop overtime since the time I started and by the time I left.
Employee benefits aren't great, I'd consider them on par with what a full time retail employee should expect.
The pay isn't terrible, although I still personally feel like it fails to compete with fair wages when you consider how much money they make on a monthly basis. Many of the jobs feel like they deserve more pay than what the company offers.
In order to save money, they suddenly decided to change our weekly payroll to every other week. When you are used to getting paid every week, this is a low blow. The company offered to give people "loans" to make the transition easier.
Even though we were told that we met all their sales goals for the year, the bonus they had hyped up so much for us wasn't coming because of "metrics" and that they were going to review them so we were more likely to get it in the future, while also failing to actually explain what the metrics were and what we had actually failed to achieve in order to get it.
It just felt like a whole carrot and stick situation, except all you get is the stick. I think when they announced we wouldn't be getting our bonus that I had started to seriously look in to a new job.
