Pros

Honeywell offers new employees a supportive start with easy onboarding, provided equipment, and digital self-service tools for HR and IT. The culture encourages flexible hours, cost-saving virtual collaboration via Teams, and clear procedures backed by training, all within a stable, globally recognized organization. CORA PPM provides a centralized, configurable platform with strong executive dashboards, live Gantt views, and integrated financial/risk tracking.

Cons

Despite having documented procedures, Honeywell’s project execution often suffers from inconsistent implementation, particularly in critical project controls like schedule baselines and progress measurement systems. I have experience role overload, expected to simultaneously manage cost control, scheduling, and progress tracking without dedicated on-site schedulers—especially on mega projects where one planner may be stretched across multiple workstreams. This challenge is amplified by heavy compliance and reporting demands, making it difficult to maintain focus and efficiency in fast-paced project environments. CORA PPM scheduling engine lacks the depth of Primavera P6 or MS Project, performance lag, limited report customization, a steep administration learning curve, and weak native directory/task features for enterprise rollout.

Pros

The big highlight of my internship has definitely been the team I've been surrounded by. Everyone, including my mentor, boss, coworkers, people from other teams, etc., has been extremely welcoming and willing to help me throughout my entire internship. The project work as an R&D intern was amazing, and I was able to gather an incredible amount of knowledge as a summer intern.

Cons

Although I was provided company housing at my Raleigh, NC location, the housing did not feel safe. Last summer, one of the interns witnessed someone get stabbed to death outside her apartment (which is where I am at now) and had to take several weeks off work due to being scared of leaving her housing. The other interns at this location, while they had not watched it, had to live with that stipulation for the rest of the summer. At the end of the summer, a letter had been written by this intern, as well as other interns leaving reviews, saying that no intern should be put in that housing again. However, this year, I was put in that housing, to the disapproval of my coworkers. It's disappointing that such a great work experience is harbored by my poor provided housing experience, and it will most likely cause me to caution people about applying to Honeywell. While a murder can happen anywhere, I feel as though it was negligent to put interns, many of which are not familiar with the area, in a neighborhood that has a bit of a previous track record.
