Pros

The work is challenging, the company is financially stable, this is a global company, and the company is among the leaders in the markets it serves. There are lots of opportunities to make a contribution. Management is making a concerted effort to improve work processes, to increase the focus on customers and on doing the right jobs in the right way. The company supports telecommuting and other accommodations for people who cannot (or prefer not to) work 8-5 five days a week.

Cons

A lot of activities have been outsourced to India, such as software development. This limits job opportunities since some career paths are not available to people from North America or Europe. The company is large with a lot of overhead, and will never be a nimble, Silicon Valley startup. The global presence means that it is easy to work odd hours, such as early mornings or evenings. Certain jobs require a lot of travel. There are occasional rumors that Honeywell will sell all or part of ACS, which would likely result in major dislocations.

Pros

I really didn’t find any pros. This was by far the worst experience of my career.

Cons

Company is solely focused on hitting quarterly results by any means possible which limits any long term thinking or decision making. The culture is cut throat, the open floor plan limits the ability to connect with co-workers, allows for zero personal space and feels like working in a call center. Leadership has adopted the GE model from the 80’s and has no idea how to treat people. For example,I was called ‘f$%^ing’ stupid by a C-Suite leader and was present in many meetings involving Sr. Leaders cussing out junior employees. To say it was demoralizing would be an understatement. The company claims to be on the cutting edge of technology, but it’s all show, smoke and mirrors. This is a thermostat, scanner and floor fan company that cannot figure out how to innovate beyond adding Bluetooth or moving the power button. Software products are developed by people with absolutely no knowledge of operations and the turnover rate is beyond acceptable. Most of the positive reviews on this site are written by people who are new to Honeywell and in the honeymoon period. This is intentional and is an action in the onboarding process to make the company look better than it is. Reviews by tenured employees are generally poor and consistent with this feedback.
