Johnson Controls Employer Reviews

my day to day work was review journal posting by a/p accountant andpost it to ledger, resolve vendor issue within time line, update department about new ap guide lines.

Just like any other union factory job..
You come in and work your 8 hours and go home type of place
Management is ok they are just under a lot of pressure
co workers are good peoples
hardest part - kind of labor intensive
best part - getting big pay checks

My day included; checking e-mails, making calls from my queue, processing cash moves, preparing refunds and legal packets as well as running financial reports. I was able to work with the customer resolving disputes, obtain waivers and certified payroll as needed to have our invoices paid promptly. We were in teams. I worked in the Central team. My – more... co-workers were helpful sharing their knowledge and provided helpful tips for collecting. The hardest part of the job was not enough time in the day. I enjoyed working at a company that provided me with clear policies and proceedures. My management team was helpful as well. – less

I can tell you they are an appalling company to work for in Ireland.Bunch of amateur managers in some accounts they manage in the technology industry. Poor leaders in some accounts so poor in fact that they cannot preform basic tasks.

Purchasing/vendor tracking/budget development/software development
How to train a variety of employees
Mixed batch - mostly very nice people
Constant revolving door of management changes/policies
Working without any direction

Very attentive to workers, appreciative to workers that woked their. Overall a good place to work.

I have learned different type of work and how to communicate well and cooperate to my co-worker.

The co-workers was pleasure to work with, everyone work together. My job as a sewing machine operator, was to assemble pieces of material and sew together to make seat covers for different GMC motor vehicles. The hardest part of the job was adjusting the sewing machine to the different type of material.

loved my work but poor management of business. I was promoted as a Maintenance supervisor then was laid off, unfair management.

Building Seat rails for Dodge Trucks and Kia Automobiles, I worked my way to Line Supervisor which entailed keeping the line(s) going on schedule, I supervised the line assemblers.

JCI expects salaried employees to work a minimum of 50hrs and MORE when there is a deadline with no additional recognition or pay.

Old fashioned top-down management style. They have not kept up with the times. No work life balance, still require business dress, leaders hide in their ivory towers, employees are just tools.

Great place with daily challenges and excellent procedures.

Responsible for all correct cost processing by assistants on service jobs. Job costing and investigating of cost over budget and report on forcasted margins before invoicing. Discuss vairiances with relevant service managers and get approval before invoicing. assist in supplier and customer account queries.

Co-workers normally comes to me for assistance – more... with system or processing issues.

Ive gained a lot of experience over the past 5 years and am known for my problem solving capabilities.

Ive learned that following the correct procedures the first time saves a lot of time, aggrevation and money.

Most enjoyable part is when reaching forcasted targets even after doubts because of system/installation/service issues. – less

Great company to work for. Would have loved to retire from the company. This company taught me alot about the HVAC systems. When I first started the company all I knew about HVAC is that we provided service to different companies. Now I can tell you the different type of units examples AHU, RTU, Chillers and also the functions of the units.

Enjoyed working with my co-workers as well as the management in my department.

This place is terrible to work for, they terminated me when I had a medical condition I told them I needed to seek help for

Johnson Controls does a lot for the communities their offices are in. They encourage volunteering and are always looking for ways to give back. Sometimes though, it would seem like the company is working a little too hard at making a name for themselves rather than focusing on their employees overall happiness and well-being. With this being such a – more... large company, advancement can be rather difficult as you are competing with hundreds of internal applicants as well as hundreds of external. The management style in the department I work for varies greatly. We have 2 vertical market managers who differ in their management styles and that trickles down to the staff they manage. There is also a problem with treating everyone equally. What is good for one, is not always good for all. That being said, I have learned a great deal about company financials, contract management, billing and other skills by working for Johnson Controls. They have allowed me to push myself and learn different aspects of the buisness, and for that I am greatful. Right now, however, I am a square peg being forced into a round hole. My branch office reorganized and all of the positions that used to exist, were consolidated into 2 positions, which are both customer service. It is difficult to grow or learn when you are pigeon holed into a job that was not of your choosing. – less

A lot of good people there but upper management will layoff as many as takes to to meet year end share holders expectations and maximize their own bonuses. Twice in ten years over 10-15,000 at a time.

i go into work have to put a uniform. We have a safty meeting every day before the shift starts. Then I have to look at the run schedule of 6 lines. have to keep up a steady pace to make sure all of the lines stary running. I've learned that this job containes a lot of imformation and skills. thge hardest part of my job is talking to management there – more... is a lot of miscomunication through out the plant. the enjoyable part is that everyone makes it a fun work place. – less

Wasn't to fond of this job. I was pregnant and it wasn't working to well for me
