Pros

Great brands; despite crazy hours & demands, and multiple people to answer to and review decisions with, some really smart people; access to the larger network of JNJ companies (200+ separate companies) and jobs

Cons

A sweatshop; the consumer businesses are still trying to find their way, the one way that will work, and are still struggling with their recent acquisition of Pfizer's consumer business; good luck trying to find some one to mentor you... you're on your own

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.
