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

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.
