Pros

Flexible hours although that may change I work with great people and my local managers are excellent Celebrity CEO recently retired Decent pay although most likely below market rates if you stay there for too long

Cons

Unlimited vacation policy started this year, it is not unlimited and most employees will probably not get approved (yes you need to be approved for all vacation even though it's unlimited) for as much as they used to be entitled to. Medical costs have skyrocketed faster than the industry. No dental. 401k match permanently reduced to 75% of what it used to be. Bonuses permanently reduced to 50% of what they were and will most likely be eliminated in the next few years. Basically all benefits have been drastically cut. Multiple furlough each year with little advanced notice. Layoffs multiple times in the last year and now not enough people to complete the work. My 55 hour weeks went to 60+ due to reduction in force and programs have been put off or cancelled. No more remote working makes it difficult to work long hours and many of the best engineers are leaving due to the change. Its also caused severe over-crowding in outdated facilities. No career advancement opportunities, In my 10+ years I only saw one promotion and it was from engineer 1 to 2. Little to no merit increases (even with great performance reviews) and investment. Lots of red tape due to top leadership micromanaging every division. Going back to school was discouraged and no time with the amount of extra hours required to complete projects on reduced schedules. Former CEO bled the employees dry to make Wall Street happy and it will have severe consequences over the next 5 to 10 years. Every reason I started working for Honeywell has been taken away and I no longer see it as a company I plan to retire from, there are just too many better opportunities.

Pros

Nice people. Can keep your airline miles. Bathrooms are kept clean. Cubes are clean. Starbucks coffee is available in the cafeteria. Pop is free. That's the best I can do here...

Cons

Worst company to work for. Ever. Horrible environment, terrible leadership, no respect for employees. No benefits or appreciation for anything employees do. Furloughs, no raises, terrible bonus. Very stressful, no work/family balance. No work from home policy. A culture of dishonesty with leadership and caring more about their egos than having an honest conversation about how to fix problems. Can't hire decent smart people because they are so desperate to fill roles after a hiring freeze. I have more than 25 years experience in my field and I would rather work at Menards as a cashier. This place is dismal all over the company.

Pros

-It's a job I guess and they still let you use the bathrooms for free

Cons

Where to start? Possibly the worst engineering company you could ever work for. Expect to see furloughs on a periodic basis while the CEO gets record bonuses for record profits. Expect to be overworked and underpaid. Expect to be asked to put in "undocumented overtime" so that no additional people need to be hired on. Expect to get a demerit if you use your sick time. This company is an utter joke - maybe at one point Honeywell was a great company to work for..but that was long long ago.
