It depends. If you plan to stay at a company for a while join in which state you plan to live longer. AMGEN HQ is in CA and J&J is in NJ. If you want career growth then you should network with more people internally and is easier if you can visit the office. Amgen has 1 week shutdown in summer and winter. J&J only in winter unless they changed it.

Amen WLB and culture is great. I’m at Amgen but remote on the East Coast so I know lots of JnJ people. Never hear anything good about JNJ.
