Pros

Very sharp technical people to work with. Defined sick time benefits 7% 401K match

Cons

Constant internal narrative that the company is poor and can't fully restore benefits which were "temporarily reduced/suspended" during great recession even though stock price is 5X. Tuition rembursement tied to 9 block rating (must be 1 or 2 [above average). "At Standard" performance does not count. Removal of ability to telecommute. Toxic work environment (Management by Fear and Intimidation). Negative re-enforcement applied as a employee motivational tool. Essentially W-2 job. There are really no benefits. - Employee pays full cost of Dental - Employee pays full cost of Vision - Medical is catastrophic coverage only Lack of defined vacation benefits (new policy of "unlimited" vacation as long as approved being used as a method to reduce time off for long time employees) Regular small Reduction in Force Job actions even when business conditions do not warrant it. Almost every HR policy ends with the phrase "Failure to comply may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination". Every group is required to have at least one employee on a PIP Mandatory non-compensated overtime for engineers. Failure to do so is counted against employee at review time.

Pros

Strong customer base, talented employees, and opportunities to grow your career. Honeywell gives you exposure to complex technical challenges across multiple industries while providing the resources and support needed to be successful. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and there is no shortage of opportunities for those willing to take on additional responsibility

Cons

Frequent organizational changes can create additional meetings, reporting requirements, and administrative work. As the company continues to evolve, balancing internal processes with customer-facing priorities can sometimes be challenging. Long travel schedules can also impact work-life balance for field-based employees.
