The interview process was thoughtful, professional, and felt more like a conversation than an interrogation.
I was able to showcase my freelance work in Azure/Power BI data analytics and personal GitHub projects, which were genuinely valued.
The hiring team was perceptive and appreciated the unique perspective I brought with my math background and non-traditional path into software engineering.
I had the opportunity to speak about a past project where I modernized an enterprise inventory system using .NET and SQL, highlighting real-world deployment and access control experience.
Microsoft technology skills and Azure cloud certifications are highly relevant and recognized here.
The company culture is outstanding — supportive, collaborative, and filled with brilliant minds.
I’ve been recognized twice as employee of the month, which speaks volumes about how contributions are noticed and appreciated.
There’s a clear path for contractors to convert to full-time, as many of my tenured colleagues have done.
Johnson Controls looks great on a resume and offers truly meaningful work.
Kontras
As a contractor, there’s a bit of uncertainty around long-term employment, even though the environment encourages sticking around.
Higher pay opportunities exist elsewhere, though the culture here makes it hard to leave.
