Expect to get projects 95% complete, only to have the last 5% take 3x as long due to managers mandating rework and alterations. Other places i have worked at have had 4-5 revisions per project in the final stages, at Johnson 10+ revisions are not out of the ordinary. You will rework something until it is "perfect" and by perfect I mean until management is done pixel-peeping. I have had multiple instances in which a design was complete and approved by the 3rd revision, only to have managers change miniscule parts of the ad for 4 or 5 more revisions. This usually lasts until the deadline has been missed or about to be missed. You will be punished for this in the form of a KPI completion percentage. (The KPI is an itemized list of every project you are planning to complete in the month.) If you request their input early to get ahead of the rework curve, they will say you aren't "owning" the project properly. They will ask your opinion, and if you say it looks good they will actually count that against you because nothing can just be good. Rework is the name of the game at Johnson. You will even redo projects that were done because a manager saw it a month later and wanted to change it.
