Pros

Honeywell is a good starting and training point for graduates. There is a chance to travel a lot and learn how to solve planty of issues which strenghten yourself. You can get a position that gives you responsibility and allow you to drive people even if you don't have any experiance for. Then it's up to you if you manage that or not. There is more or less no control from management in case you're doing good job especially when most of the managemet is based out of your country.

Cons

As there is no drive and interest from your managemet you feel after some time that nobody is interested in what you're doing especially if you're doing that well. It's good that everything is up to you but there is a dark side of this advantage which means everything is really only up to you even if you need any support or consultation. It's difficult to drive people and get results from them as there is not defined clearly organizational structure as most people are on the same level. There is no authority to push your colleagues especially if they are based in different country. This is partially caused by absence of any motivation system. People have to solve problems mostly alone which takes more time than working as a team.There is a very poor benefit system and mostly inadequate sallary for work load and responsibilties you have. It's common to work overtime for free. Poor career development program. If you want to be promoted, you have to find a new postion yourself internally but your career development is limited by country where you work.

Pros

Great teammates, great team leads who support and train well. Professional and structured work environment with freedom to develop individual talents. Lots of staff appreciation and camaraderie. Lot's of positions and opportunity for growth and promotion. Amazing learning experiences with opportunities to work, learn and interact with team members from diverse roles backgrounds and professions.

Cons

Starting salaries can skew lower, system redesigns are often flawed and redundant. Promotions are given however they require several before high salary and also they are often very political. Sometimes they would promote people who were neither proficient or knowledgeable but simply favored by a particular higher up.

Pros

Only the individual contributors at this company are nice. All managers are pretty useless.

Cons

Worse run company I have EVER been exposed to. I left on good terms but I have been needing to call their HR department for almost a year to finalize a paycheck and get a W2 corrected, which they never did and has created so many headaches with my taxes. Just the worst kind of incompetence. I am shocked this company even functions. Whoever is over HR and payroll should actually do their job. 0 accountability here. I am glad I got an offer to go somewhere else while I hadn't wasted any significant amount of my life there. I will forever, tell everyone I meet to never waste their time with Honeywell or the newly created off shoots.
