Pros

Some great people left - There have been so many changes recently - that many of the great people are leaving. These great people are needed to run Aerospace - whic is complex - both from a manufacturing and governmental requirements. Great products - We supply Commercial and Defense - products that make commercial products safer and defense products that make our troops safer around the world.

Cons

Benefits, Benefit, Benefits - the company used to have great benefits. My family is now on my wife's benefits because the Honeywell benefits are too costly. As an employee only I still pay over $6000 a year for employee only benefits. I also have a $1500 deductible before my insurance even pays a thing. Company is not paying for Dental this year :( Work from Home is going away. Yes we used to be a progressive company that trusted employees to get the job done - but now we are regressing back to the 1980's - where if they don't see you in a site - you must not be working. In my role - I work with employees and contract workers around the world and sometimes people in the sites. Where we work should not really not matter. I have assembled great teams - where they worked never mattered to me - as long as they got the job done.

Pros

Some genuinely nice coworkers, that deserve better. Sometimes provide free food BUT consists of unhealthy options.

Cons

Extremely poor communication from management. Non existent most of time. When they do communicate, you are met w/ lies. Care about profit/numbers at the expense of employee health. Impossible production expectations without enough personnel. Management questions everyone but themselves. Equipment shortage and issues impact production as well. But blame is placed on production staff. Toxic coworkers that will get on the case of new workers for not being robots that operate non-stop. Depressing and loud environment, along w/ possible chemical exposure. Low pay and small raises. HR cares about business needs, not individuals. Stretching required every hour. Optional at first, but then management started enforcing. Computers and systems always slow and having issues. Language barrier. Diversity is great, but this can cause miscommunication w/ those who don't speak good English.
