Pros

Medical Devices: Diversity in staff, All employees trying to do their best to move massive company forward, but....

Cons

Majority (Big 3) of Medical Devices sales / technology is stuck in the 90's with very low growth for the next 5-10 years. Insular mentality and implementing change a challenge given leadership unwillingness to adjust sales expectations and commit to change. Leadership changes every 2+ years so most initiatives are re-evaluated & many are changed before they even have a chance to gain traction.

Pros

High performance expectations, pay, benefits

Cons

401k match below average. This is hypothetically offset by a pension, but for those coming to JnJ late in career, higher 401k would be better.

Pros

The colleagues I worked with were great, friendly, helpful. Because the colleagues were great, I'd love to work there full-time, but this was a short contract.

Cons

The supervisor I was ultimately working for had never worked in digital-related products, in which I had decades of experience. He seemed to be unaware of what every colleague would be telling me (I was interviewing colleagues using a software the manager was intending to propose use for firm-wide). Both the colleagues I interviewed, and the internal technical staff I was speaking with knew the project would not function as he seemed intent on ... forcing(?) it do so. I gave him the resulting report of its users' feedback, and I was finished with my contract. He had gone through 2 other women in this same role, already. And he hired a male after me who delivered esentially the same results. Because I wasn't there, I have no idea of the dream outcome this manager attained, or switched to, later.
