Pros

They have been very good at allowing me to be flexible with my time. Because of this, I can attend to personal matters when they come up.

Cons

I was hired with the expectation of doing one type of work, and I am doing nothing remotely close to the work & direction that I would like to take in my career. They cut off overtime, then cut pay 10%, they changed the rules on tuition reimbursement, and they are still hinting at lay-offs. I'd prefer to keep my 10% and take my chances with lay-offs. They are also yanking retirement medical coverage for people who chose the old system over the "one-time-cash-out" system they adopted in the late 90s.

Pros

Honeywell has a really good early careers program.

Cons

If you like upstate New York, then it's a really pleasant place to work.

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.
