Pros

Honeywell has a good brand name. The perks and benefits are excellent for senior employees. Salary is generally equal to or higher than industry standards. Honeywell is very established. Job security for those working in India is very high (Mostly because Indians work for cheaper). There is a lot of flexibility in timings. Sometimes employees are allowed to work from home. But this depends entirely on the nature of your immediate boss. There is plenty of recognition and awards for outstanding work. Overall, it is a great company to work in, for people with 7+ yrs of experience.

Cons

Not at all a good place for freshers. Fresh engineering graduates are always given really small jobs, that nobody else would want to do. These jobs usually dont require engineering skills. And there is no scope for improvement or growth for employees joining in as freshers. The oldies are usually stuck in really good high posts, so there is not much scope for the youngsters. Too much money is spent on the senior employees who do not deliver much and not many oppurtunitites for a fresher in the company. The kind of work you do, does not align with your interests. It is just pure luck! There is a lack of life in office, due to lack of energetic and young people. What else can you expect when there are so many oldies in the campany... Work environment SUCKS!!

Pros

Interesting product offerings, learning both global and domestic industry, ability to climb the ladder and have career growth if you work hard. Great people within the business.

Cons

Honeywell corporate culture is very negative. They don't really care about employees, and many executive level managers will ask for things that require late night and weekend work. There is very little work life balance, and no cross training so you still may be contacted or expected to pitch in while you are on vacation.
