Pros

Currently none. Used to be flexible work schedule, good pay, exciting products and customers. All those are gone now.

Cons

-Used to have great products, those are going down because of the moral damage that has been done. - 3 weeks unpaid time off YTD, rumor of more to come. - Bonuses cut in half - Moral is horrible. I dread waking up and going to work. - Now they have started taking away perks that don't even cost them money such as work from home. -They expect you to work in a global company and take meetings at 6AM, 9PM. Until now they offered work from home so you could balance your life if and when needed due to these late/early meetings. Now they expect you to be in a building 8 hours, and still take those meetings. -Leadership is completly out of touch with reality. All of the above decisions have been notified via email with no followup. I understand hard times mean hard decisions but treat us like humans and have a town meeting to discuss. A cold email with no further details is the worst way to communicate it. -Productivity has ground to a halt. No one cares if the whole place fails and some are doing everything they can to sabotage projects/products. - Even if you can get past all this, you have to work with people who can't and this makes your job extra hard. You rely on others to get your projects done. If they do bad work or don't do anything, you can't get yours completed. - The majority of the reason we are here is because of poor leadership decisions. I am aware of just one bad program, that everyone in my group thought was bad from the beginning, that has cost Honeywell $25M already and is not over yet. The push for revenue in years past has caused unnecessary risk taking and dumb decisions that is not starting to show. Don't believe the hype about the bad aerospace market. Yes it is bad but what it is really doing is exposing the cracks in this company.

Pros

Dedicated professionals to allocate responsibilities; clear learning objectives; opportunities to assist engineers in the field.

Cons

Upper-tier management is a bit disorganized. Nobody seems to know what was promised in our contracts. Our scope is a bit vague sometimes.

Pros

Interesting product offerings, learning both global and domestic industry, ability to climb the ladder and have career growth if you work hard. Great people within the business.

Cons

Honeywell corporate culture is very negative. They don't really care about employees, and many executive level managers will ask for things that require late night and weekend work. There is very little work life balance, and no cross training so you still may be contacted or expected to pitch in while you are on vacation.
