Pros

My co-workers are (mostly) great. The work is interesting and always a challenge. There are opportunities to learn new technologies and new applications for existing technologies. The learning curve can be steep and the pace very fast.

Cons

The reviewer who stated that the 'old timers have been doing the same things the same way for 30 years' is spot-on. These are the people that are difficult to work with; the upside is that a select few (very, very few) of them are founts of knowledge - if they feel like sharing and think you are worthy.

Pros

Recommend working at Honeywell only if you have no other option. Arizona is a great place to live.

Cons

Non-technical upper management (business trained only) unqualified to properly manage a high-tech company - a widespread disturbing trend of which Honeywell is at the forefront. Environment is such that the best people are leaving and those remaining no longer care about doing a good job. People who once loved their jobs now only complain. Major customers are increasingly dissatisfied. It is so sad to compare the company now to that just ten or 15 years ago. Great managers (whom their people would do anything for) have all been replaced by mindless MBAs. Would state that more strongly but don't want this to be deleted.

Pros

Good all around company with a great opportunities to grow your career in different directions. Mr. Cote is a great CEO and his fellow senior leaders are always looking to the future and trying to do what is best for the shareholders. The company has sustained growth in good times and in bad over the past 5 years.

Cons

Large companies like every other large company has issues with size and balance. The company is moving more and more towards emerging markets. So given the growth strategy, you have to always learn new skills to keep yourself employed and on top. If not, your job will be moved to a low cost region and you will be out of work.
