Pros

Competitive base salary + 401K match (HON stock)

Cons

Political environment is insufferable. Zero training for new hires is apparent and is hurting the company big time. We create tons of internal issues and roadblocks because no one knows what they are doing, to the point I spend ~85% time fixing self created issues. Culture is worst I’ve ever experienced, unsure if it could be worse. Daily email traffic with internal coworkers is surprisingly combative, we virtually fight with each other. “Relationships” with suppliers are toxic and don’t exist. Executive leadership is clearly unqualified and overpaid. If your young, talented and looking to be recognized, RUN. Management is on the moon when it comes to recognizing talent and a job well done. You will not move up unless you conform to the stupid political environment. I don’t recommend anyone to work here.

Pros

Room to move around roles, departments Smart and talented engineers people- if you can make connections Great experience building Cool products

Cons

Mediocre pay Confusing processed- subject to change Unlimited PTO is a scam to set meetings up on your calendar while you’re taking time off to not fully burn out Some groups are great to work with or for, most are mediocre to bad. Politics and bureaucracy- reviews that drag on for ages while also getting constantly squeezed to finish milestones. Constant passing the buck on accountability- “there’s room under the bus for everyone!” “This is how we’ve always done it” constantly running into “new process goals” Every site was absorbed and used to be another separate company- so every site disputes the “right way” of doing things, and kind of does their own thing- despite messaging otherwise. For PE roles, if you have to incorporate multiple sites’ teams to work on the same project it can be a complete nightmare.
