Pros

Our end customer, mission, national security pride on working for DoD project. The dedication and passion from the employees.

Cons

metrics driven management, you have to work a minimum of 44 hours a week to stay off the layoffs and furloughs(only get paid for 40, rest if free for Honeywell to profit from), you are expected to train yourself and on your own time and money, low morale at all levels, employees are viewed as liabilities not assets, benefits are below par(high deductible, high premium insurance), unlimited vacation (as long as you don't use more than 2 weeks), an average pay raise of -2.5% per year after inflation for the last 10 years, not enough people to support all the processes and red tape, quality is horrible, and managers only care about the checkmark that will ensure they get their bonuses. I could go on and on, but I'm sure you can understand a 1 star rating.

Not a good place to work

Pros

- Flexible (depending on team and boss). - No pressure to do any overtime. - Coworkers are helpful - Low stress for most part

Cons

- No chance for career advancement. Getting promoted is almost impossible no matter what your ratings are. - End of the year ratings are meaningless. Extremely difficult to move up without leaving your team and very political. It's not what you know but who you know. - Very low morale across all sectors due to constant benefit cuts and furloughs over the past year. - Most employees are looking for jobs outside the company making working there frustrating because nobody seems to care anymore. I don't blame them as I totally understand. - Management constantly lying when it comes to career progression. Make you lose respect and working there very difficult. - Very bad medical insurance. - Constant benefit cuts and regular RIFs and furloughs. - Not much new development in the US and no chance to learn new skills as a result.

Pros

Salary is acceptable. Projects I've worked on have been multi-disciplinary, technically challenging, and overall interesting to work on.

Cons

The leadership is tanking this company. I never knew this level of low morale was even possible. Most attribute it to the insatiable greed of the outgoing CEO. He is trying to ensure his retirement comfort through the furloughs, layoffs, reduction in benefits, salary freezes, etc., that have been going on for years now. The company is doing well, but he is milking every dollar for the bottom line he can with these unsustainable hardships on the employees. I can't imagine there has ever been a company that has cared less about their employees. Also, management cares more about the number of overtime hours you put in, rather than any output of value or quality of work. This contributes to a terrible work culture and general lack of work-life balance.
