It's always hard to know what to expect when going in for that interview -- and preparation can make all the difference. What is the interview process like at Johnson Controls?

Any advice on striking the right note?

When interviewing with JCI, be sure to ask the expected hours per week and the expected travel. This is something not mentioned up front and by the time you are on the job you realize the expectation is you work 70 hours per week and travel 50% of the time and you quickly realize you are not paid enough, there is no consideration for family or personal well-being. If you don't believe me, see how many times JCI has ranked as a best place to work for anyone but engineers.

Drink Heavily bfore, during and after. JC has issues. All kidding aside, JC is a great company and I would reccommend them at any given opportunity. I was employed as JC employee some years ago when I should have been employed as a union dude but things didn't work out. Great place, get your requirements straight from the beginning and things will work for you. later, bear

JCI has been a great company to work for. You can work long hours but I do get paid overtime. The base pay is not as competitive as it should be.
I never had any problems with taking time off for family issues or personal time when I needed. It's all what you make of it.

If you drink in any amount either at home or on the road with JCI,
be very careful they will hold it against you. Political obediance
is expected of you and at any time they will judge if you are or not.
If your judged as different or further advanced than your peers you will
be singled out and let go. Be careful of the management structure.( does
the term snakebite mean anything to you?)If you do not blend in with the
"good ol'boy" network that's reason enough for them to deem you as a political
subversive.
Advice on striking the right note........try your spoiled little rich kid
routine. As a matter of fact polish up ALL of your acting skills.....You'll
needto draw on all of them.
My advice to you is not to apply at JCI at all. Save yourself the pain
and suffering of humiliating yourself for your masters,working yourself to
death for little money and no recognition,and finally being terminated on some
political grounds.
