Pros

Large company with a wealth of resources

Cons

Working for or with Honeywell is a detriment to your health. Honeywell makes its money on acquisitions - they buy up profitable companies, consolidate and outsource jobs, steal their technologies, move to the next company and repeat...They report a profitable bottom line from the acquisitions, but internally they are cutting benefits, scrutinizing every minute expense, shutting down facilities and laying off employees. Honeywell absolutely does not care about its employees. They do not promote anyone to a manager without a Bachelors degree and director level promotions require a Masters degree. It's an unwritten rule, but they write their job descriptions to rule out people they don't want. As a result, employees with tenure from acquired companies are often overlooked and discarded. Employees are expected to work long hours, with unrealistic expectations/metrics, and are stressed to the max because of the workloads and demands. These expectations are not limited to their employees, but also to vendors that work for them and want their business. If you're looking for work-life balance, this is NOT the company for you.

Pros

Room to move around roles, departments Smart and talented engineers people- if you can make connections Great experience building Cool products

Cons

Mediocre pay Confusing processed- subject to change Unlimited PTO is a scam to set meetings up on your calendar while you’re taking time off to not fully burn out Some groups are great to work with or for, most are mediocre to bad. Politics and bureaucracy- reviews that drag on for ages while also getting constantly squeezed to finish milestones. Constant passing the buck on accountability- “there’s room under the bus for everyone!” “This is how we’ve always done it” constantly running into “new process goals” Every site was absorbed and used to be another separate company- so every site disputes the “right way” of doing things, and kind of does their own thing- despite messaging otherwise. For PE roles, if you have to incorporate multiple sites’ teams to work on the same project it can be a complete nightmare.
