Honeywell Program Planning and Control Analyst reviews

Expected to complete a lot of work outside of position's scope

-There is no clarity among managers as to how to apply vacation. Unlimited should be unlimited not up for discretion if all of your work duties are met -REMOTE work is highly frowned upon (discouraged) and highly audited.. If you have to work remote for a day you have to get manager and HR approval and you can expect your time card to be audited on a weekly/monthly basis to see if you are in the building for the amount of hours you charged so you have to make your comments clear (the company has zero trust in employees -less gray areas on what PP&C is responsible for; seems like everything falls on PP&C when it's not clear who the task should go to. This increases to already massive work load as while there are many standard processes they are all managed by the analyst who also has full Cost and Schedule requirements (unlike most DOD companies one analyst is usually responsible for cost and schedule on multiple large projects). -Streamlining of data to various upper management functions. Seems like each director/sr. manager is looking at different numbers. PPC should push back on the multiple request from multiple departments which results in an extreme amount of duplicated work. -Many non value added tasks as mentioned above. Many tasks performed by PPC are only important to PPC Management while engineering does not use or need. Honeywell is the standard for Earned Value Management but EVM at the minute level is not necessary on all projects. FFP and projects under a certain value that do not have a customer requirement are not necessary to have EVM yet all projects are required to perform EV my PPC management to keep up company metrics. -Too Many Metrics. PPC is expected to manage all metrics and keep accuracy for areas that PPC has no control over (head count, manpower, engineering and production hours etc) essentially doing the CAM jobs for them. Morale is very low in the department and the company as a whole, they reduced company match and you have to work until December to get it., 5 block used for performance appraisal... very hard to get outside of the median (unless you kiss enough butt in the right places). Once you reach the SR level there is no upward mobility for most. Benefits are EXTREMELY expensive and they do not cover anything until you hit your deductible usually 3k for family. Expect to get LARGE bills whenever you have to do anything medical except for your normal checkups.
