Pros

Competitive base salary + 401K match (HON stock)

Cons

Political environment is insufferable. Zero training for new hires is apparent and is hurting the company big time. We create tons of internal issues and roadblocks because no one knows what they are doing, to the point I spend ~85% time fixing self created issues. Culture is worst I’ve ever experienced, unsure if it could be worse. Daily email traffic with internal coworkers is surprisingly combative, we virtually fight with each other. “Relationships” with suppliers are toxic and don’t exist. Executive leadership is clearly unqualified and overpaid. If your young, talented and looking to be recognized, RUN. Management is on the moon when it comes to recognizing talent and a job well done. You will not move up unless you conform to the stupid political environment. I don’t recommend anyone to work here.

Pros

I'm really struggling to find any. I would have said my teammates and direct report, but they're mostly gone now.

Cons

Horrible inter-office politics. Worst health insurance in the world. Completely disfunctional development environment with no room to innovate or make decisions affecting your work environment. Microsoft shop (heavy Azure). Clueless leadership who don't understand software development. Values social issues and progressivism over working products. HR and hiring are a nightmare. People are promoted and rewarded for behavior that would be considered fireable elsewhere. Company promotes competition between its own business units in a way that creates a toxic atmosphere instead of healthy competition. Security and Ops stuck in an old school mindset that is counterproductive to actual network security, stifles innovation, and are combative towards development teams. No input or control for developers over tools and software they have to use and support on a daily basis. Bureaucracy everywhere. SAFe agile. Poor work-life balance. Other offices in the company are run-down, sad, and possibly unsafe with mold and asbestos.

Pros

Salary - But that is because you are expected to work 6 days a week, all hours of the day.

Cons

Where to begin.... * Work Life Balance - Expect to sacrifice time with your family. You'll be working 6 days a week. Meetings at all hours of the day. Your parent passed away? They will expect you to respond to emails. Having a child? Does the hospital have WiFi to jump on business meetings. They will demand you come into the office on weekends. * Unlimited vacation - You'll be lucky to take 1 week a year. And it's a major inconvenience to the Company if you need to take a random day off. * You'll have multiple meetings on the very same topic each day, issues don't get resolved. * No one believes in the numbers, everyone questions everyone's work, a lot of non-value added work. * Systems - You would expect systems to tie out and they do not. You'll never be able to get the right sales numbers or costing unless you make manual adjustments. * Took 3 weeks to have full system access in order for me to complete my job. There are multiple finance employees in my area looking to get out.
