Pros

Excellent pay, Ability to work from home. Bonuses if you're able to get Band 4 or above. Software engineers are a focus for the future.

Cons

Expensive health insurance with $3000 deductible. Relentless focus on removing US employees in Aerospace and placing overseas. Layoffs and furloughs with no annual raises are happening more frequently. Low investment in new Aerospace products, appear to be cost cutting company to death or sale to another company. UTC was smart to stay away. Upper management appears to never focused beyond 1 year out. They tell Wall Street one thing and employees another. They've been saying they're in a slow growth environment for 8 years now. If you're right out of college, I wouldn't recommend Honeywell as you'll find better management. work environment, health insurance and more elsewhere without the high risk of losing your job. They want to be a software company, so Aerospace hardware is in conflict with that.

Pros

Room to move around roles, departments Smart and talented engineers people- if you can make connections Great experience building Cool products

Cons

Mediocre pay Confusing processed- subject to change Unlimited PTO is a scam to set meetings up on your calendar while you’re taking time off to not fully burn out Some groups are great to work with or for, most are mediocre to bad. Politics and bureaucracy- reviews that drag on for ages while also getting constantly squeezed to finish milestones. Constant passing the buck on accountability- “there’s room under the bus for everyone!” “This is how we’ve always done it” constantly running into “new process goals” Every site was absorbed and used to be another separate company- so every site disputes the “right way” of doing things, and kind of does their own thing- despite messaging otherwise. For PE roles, if you have to incorporate multiple sites’ teams to work on the same project it can be a complete nightmare.
