The culture set by Johnson and Johnson in US is completely different from which is being followed in India. In India you are just made to follow the same for namesake, for everything else, you need to have a godfather to promote you, save you and safeguard you. The company policies are simply superb, you need to be fortunate enough to get into this company but the management in India is totally biased to those who treat them as godfather. if you speak or write the truth, either you are being thrown out of the company or you are being made a scapegoat in that issue.

...HO - mumbai - you are secured, if not only god can provide you that security. # Salary and other compensation are best in the industry but there is discrimination across the division on the same. # Politics - you can chose some best of the politicians from the HO.. # Whichever policies JnJ global initiated is truly the best in the industry, no one can even think of that. you get the encouragement to give your 100% for the company. but the way management & HR ,in India are going to treat you is something different. Talent goes for a haywire if you need to get promoted or switch on to some other division, your first criteria is supposed to have a godfather or godmother in HO.

No work like balance at all in J&J consumer health division in India as it expects the employees to work for minimum 15-16 hours a day including weekends. Five days working, Credo values for the employees and other employee friendly initiatives exist only on paper and nothing is implemented on the ground where they prove to be a perfect BANIYA company. Thanks to India Leadership Team for such a disastrous work culture. On the other hand, J&J consumer health in USA and other countries does not have such intimidating and disastrous work culture.

J&J is a great company but the Bangalore hub one is worse. Management is very toxic. They do favouritism openly. They don’t see the talents. They give more importance to people who disciple them.
