Pros

None pros at all with this company high turn over rate, miserable employees and horrible management team.

Cons

Unethical company, sexist toward women in leadership, has no real structure, medical insurance in the highest and worse I ever had. I could go on. Too many cons to count

Pros

- Management tries to boost company morale by throwing fun events. - Flex schedule (sometimes) - Promising space-hardware-related projects (if you can get in with the right people) - Interesting history and exposure to heritage hardware used on cool space missions - Manufacturing-floor-folk are nice (if they don't know you're an engineer)

Cons

TL;DR - Specific to engineering: Harbors toxic engineering culture and nepotism. - Many engineering firms have this problem and Honeywell is no different: they latched onto workers 30-40 years ago, let them get lazy and sop up a huge paycheck while they got old, and now they're all retiring without passing along their "company knowledge" to the fresh-out-of-college "replacements." - The culture of the manufacturing floor may be supportive and homey to each other, but the second you introduce yourself as an "engineer," everyone finds a reason why they can't help you. - Engineers are encouraged to not participate in company events, team building exercises, in-person meetings (with people in the same building, mind you), etc., and instead are expected to eat alone in their cube while they work and "sit-in" on meetings through Skype; despite the day-in-the-life-of the engineers looking like "go to cube, get online, Skype meetings, go home," the company still seems pretty firmly against telecommuting. - Of the influx of new, young engineers, too many of them are learning, accepting, and practicing the wrong ideas about what engineering in aerospace industry is; many follow the "monkey see, monkey do" and end up copying the lazy, arrogant, and pompous behavior everyone thinks of when they think "engineer." - Now the benefits package: since the turnover rate is so high, the company has decided to not pay a cent into anyone's retirement fund until the end of each fiscal year as incentive to get them to stay; health insurance, etc., is expensive for what you get.

Pros

Challenging tasks, opportunity to drive results Global exposure, colleagues across the globe

Cons

Too many ERP systems and slow reaction to the corporation to fix that. Focus on cost is hampering long term growth. Considers employees as dispensable and no consideration for people's personal life or challenges. This is a company for singles, married couples with no children, or children who are now grown adults. The new brand campaign "Future-shaper" is just a mask to give an impression that people mean something. Internally, it's a further encouragement to people who can just live and die at work. Too political environment - need to align with 5 people just to ensure something can even be presented to senior management Too much focus on data and granularity - management can't take decision without data
