Johnson Controls: Good news for stockholders, bad news for employees


The good, the bad.....



...and the ugly.

Naturally, there's a Scott Walker connection.

Love Triangle: Johnson Controls, Walker Contributions, and WEDC.  (Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, 11/18/2015)
WEDC awarded Johnson Controls nearly $2.47 million in tax credits in March 2014 for two projects, including $1 million for its Milwaukee Business Center in suburban Glendale, where it will lay off all of its employees beginning in January. The company said the jobs lost in Wisconsin will be sent to Johnson Controls’ accounting and finance operations in China, Mexico and Slovakia.
