Pros

- Flexible (depending on team and boss). - No pressure to do any overtime. - Coworkers are helpful - Low stress for most part

Cons

- No chance for career advancement. Getting promoted is almost impossible no matter what your ratings are. - End of the year ratings are meaningless. Extremely difficult to move up without leaving your team and very political. It's not what you know but who you know. - Very low morale across all sectors due to constant benefit cuts and furloughs over the past year. - Most employees are looking for jobs outside the company making working there frustrating because nobody seems to care anymore. I don't blame them as I totally understand. - Management constantly lying when it comes to career progression. Make you lose respect and working there very difficult. - Very bad medical insurance. - Constant benefit cuts and regular RIFs and furloughs. - Not much new development in the US and no chance to learn new skills as a result.

Pros

I really didn’t find any pros. This was by far the worst experience of my career.

Cons

Company is solely focused on hitting quarterly results by any means possible which limits any long term thinking or decision making. The culture is cut throat, the open floor plan limits the ability to connect with co-workers, allows for zero personal space and feels like working in a call center. Leadership has adopted the GE model from the 80’s and has no idea how to treat people. For example,I was called ‘f$%^ing’ stupid by a C-Suite leader and was present in many meetings involving Sr. Leaders cussing out junior employees. To say it was demoralizing would be an understatement. The company claims to be on the cutting edge of technology, but it’s all show, smoke and mirrors. This is a thermostat, scanner and floor fan company that cannot figure out how to innovate beyond adding Bluetooth or moving the power button. Software products are developed by people with absolutely no knowledge of operations and the turnover rate is beyond acceptable. Most of the positive reviews on this site are written by people who are new to Honeywell and in the honeymoon period. This is intentional and is an action in the onboarding process to make the company look better than it is. Reviews by tenured employees are generally poor and consistent with this feedback.
