Honeywell reviews

50+ hours a week expected (more before/after furlough weeks), week long furloughs, quarterly layoffs, out of touch management. Eliminated the ability to work from home to encourage collaboration (90% of my immediate project team work at different locations). Switching to a new unlimited* vacation policy. *Based upon management discretion, program milestones, workload etc. There has never been a period in my experience that a vacation would be approved with these requirements (programs are ALWAYS behind).

Working for or with Honeywell is a detriment to your health. Honeywell makes its money on acquisitions - they buy up profitable companies, consolidate and outsource jobs, steal their technologies, move to the next company and repeat...They report a profitable bottom line from the acquisitions, but internally they are cutting benefits, scrutinizing every minute expense, shutting down facilities and laying off employees. Honeywell absolutely does not care about its employees. They do not promote anyone to a manager without a Bachelors degree and director level promotions require a Masters degree. It's an unwritten rule, but they write their job descriptions to rule out people they don't want. As a result, employees with tenure from acquired companies are often overlooked and discarded. Employees are expected to work long hours, with unrealistic expectations/metrics, and are stressed to the max because of the workloads and demands. These expectations are not limited to their employees, but also to vendors that work for them and want their business. If you're looking for work-life balance, this is NOT the company for you.
