Pros

They will eventually fire you, but will call it a layoff. Yes...this is a pro. There are no other pros.

Cons

They will abuse you, lie to you. If you are exceptionally good at your job, your boss will be threatened, and will move mountains to find a way to get rid of you. This is particularly true in the Philadelphia and Delaware markets, but is commonly known throughout the entire organization. ***JCI will violate multiple federal and state employment laws in how they handle holding commission from 1 year to the next, and your commission is 100% ensured to be wrong - every month. If you take a vacation, expect your boss to send a colleague behind you to take over your accounts permanently while you are out of town. The same applies if they send you for training somewhere else in the country. You will be expected to violate both company policy and federal law by taking government employees on "wine and dine" excursions, then coached on how to expense them so that they look to be compliant.
