Pros

The salary (for a new graduate I was making well above someone at 25 out of school) The 'name' (I was able to quickly find a new job after I left because I had J&J on my resume)

Cons

The hours (ridiculous hours- was expected to answer emails on weekends and at funky hours of the night) The management (once they decided, and usually quickly, if they like your or not, you are either in for a rough or smooth ride) Very cliquey (This is perpetuated by my point above, you either are a JnJ'er or not and your colleagues will react appropriately) To my 2 points above, if you dont 'fit' expect to literally be set up to either quit or be 'asked' to leave Status Quo (dont question it, especially at ABM level, or you will be seen as not a good 'fit')

Pros

Great benefits and pto days off

Cons

Management has no idea how to run this program. They send of directives and only some people follow the rules. They're constantly having Wfm write you up for something. They ask for unrealistic expectations and when you can't comply you get written up for that as well. You can't even go to the restroom without being off the and having your score affected. Callas are back to back and other teams don't do you job so you are just lying to patients. They force you to work mandatory Ot and can't get a day off to use the time you are given but will take it away if you don't use it within a specific time frame. Top management has no idea what the trenches actually do. Run don't walk. They force you in a job you don't want and make you stay there for 18 months. Jnj is a great company but their service center is a nightmare. Join at your own risk
