Pros

8% 401k matching after 5 or 6 years.

Cons

Terrible Leadership and lack of respect for workers. They are intent on sending all jobs overseas though there seems to be little technical or financial reason for doing so. They layoff all of the workers and then wonder why they have so much trouble getting things done and why no one wants to work there. They no longer provide a "holiday dinner" at Xmas. The mis-manage programs and under-staff projects and then expect employees to bail them out with free overtime.

Pros

Nice office building, that’s it

Cons

I’ll start with the worst part of my experience at Honeywell (Corporate). A person who became superior of mine a couple months after I started my role was toxic towards me from the get-go. He was condescending, rude, micromanaged (had Teams alerts set to when I would sign on), and feedback was always negative. There literally was never a positive conversation, and I can get along with anyone. He blatantly embarrassed me in front of senior leaders in a couple meetings, to the point the leaders noticed and contacted me afterwards. One afternoon in the office, he called me into a small huddle room to go over something “quickly”. Well long story short, I was verbally harassed for an hour and a half to the point I was rocking back and forth in my chair, fidgeting with my hands, sweating, voice trembling etc., and he did not let up. Mind you, I am 3 feet away from this man (I’m a woman) who is bigger and older than I am, in a small huddle room with glass windows. Even at the beginning of the conversation, my colleague who was in the room briefly told him to take it easy on me, in which he did not. I brought it up to my HR business partner, cried to her on the phone, but she didn’t do anything. I emailed her boss in HR- no response. Someone who was superior to both of us did not do anything either. So I submitted an incident to the Employee “Helpline”. I explained the incident to someone in Compliance, but nothing was done. I even asked them to try and pull video footage from the exact date/time to prove I was being truthful and not “dramatic”. Well all I got was a “sorry” and that’s it- I still had to work closely with this person. This is only a piece of my horrible Honeywell experience. I had to spend many hours in therapy for PTSD from this person and this company. I even had to sell the bag I took to work because I couldn’t stand the sight of it. When I drive past the office building, my heart races and I’m flooded with horrible flashbacks. Some other cons: high turnover, very low employee morale, outrageous workload/no work-life balance, long hours, the Executives get what the Executives want, unfriendliest people I’ve ever encountered in the workplace.

Pros

This is specific to Anthem- you might also see "Next Gen avionics" in the job description. You'll be working in a modern environment. No 30-year old cubicles, you're not using obscure tooling like PVCS that you'd be ashamed to put on your resume. Anthem is a huge priority for Honeywell and gets a lot of attention.

Cons

The amount of turnover should speak for itself. Most teams have lost half their members in the last two or three years. One reason for that is that if you work here you will have to compete with up to 20-25 other direct reports for your boss's help. Don't believe the terms in your offer letter- those 13 days of company holidays? Last year managers told us "don't plan for December vacations" despite above-average Q4 performance. Salary might seem ok but raises never track inflation. Work life balance is notoriously bad- a whiteboard here has the quote "death is not a reason not to close your story", and after my spouse had a panic attack my leader said "well we all have work-life issues like that we have to deal with". There's a reason Anthem is hiring a lot right now. Customer schedules are at risk and leadership would rather throw more water in the bucket than plug the holes in it. If Anthem were a great team more Honeywell employees would want to switch teams.
