Honeywell Employee Reviews

Great work life balance but pay is low comparatively, good learning opportunities, slow growth career wise but excellent team and everyone gets to work at their own pace. Training are mostly online which could be changed post pandemic but cost cutting by management is sometimes the main goal

Paid the bills, but there's better out there

Toolmaker (Former Employee) - St. Asaph, Denbighshire - 15 October 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?Shopfloor staff are friendly. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?The management. No clear plan. Change what they say. Don't give you what is required to do the job. Sound modern but treat you in a Victorian manner. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Old asbestos buildings, pvc fumes and dust. Not healthy. Culture is, manager watches a YouTube video one night and wants it recreating on a shoestring by the next visit, while you try and do your original job, you don't manage it, and he holds a grudge foreverWhat is a typical day like for you at the company?Firefighting problems and cleaning, lots of cleaning

Depends which division

Manager (Current Employee) - Uk - 21 September 2023

Honeywell is a massive company and a conglomeration of smaller companies under one brand. Just because one person thinks it’s amazing another person will find the place not nice to work because of the different areas of business what is clear with her is that honeymooners American company is all about capitalism.They operate on a very lean model utilising a central matrix function, meaning you could be dealing with people from all of the world, particularly in lower paid countries like Eastern Europe and India, it’s very corporate extremely bureaucratic slow and whilst the company thinks it’s usually dynamic in the division that I work in I totally disagree. The companies generally quite tight with funding for investment and is more than happy to plough into Huge revenue stream businesses like US defence. The company expects a lot. I’m not that sympathetic, the staff pay the bare minimum of everything e.g. pension and most people I know within the division I work in and not particularly happy employees and get totally frustrated over the culture and behaviour of the business.

Pros

Salary good

Cons

Bureaucratic, corporate culture of mediocrity, slow to respond, lack of staff, too much work

Bad leadership, aggressive and bullying culture. Progression not given to cleverest most capable people but rather to the bully’s.

Product Manager (Former Employee) - United Kingdom - 6 May 2023

Incapable and bullying attitude within sensing solutions within finance team USA site. Not a place for progression and promotion for Product Managers unless you have aspirations for a nervous breakdown.

Only recommend if desperate

Avionics Test and Repair Technician (Former Employee) - Basingstoke - 27 April 2023

No significant job progression. Upper management simply don’t care about the employees. Refuse to pay decent wages to encourage/force overtime and weekend work. Was told at my pay review “you work a lot of overtime which means you have a good wage”. Progressed to my maximum available level within 2 years, no opportunity for promotions as no management left or positions weren’t backfilled. Knowing they were the only company like this in the area, they effectively have a monopoly over their employees. Was offered 1.3% pay rise which they considered fair. Left to work for a much better company and received a 5% pay rise within 3 months purely because of cost of living. Would only go back if I absolutely had to.

Pros

Subsidised canteen

Poor Workplace

N/A (Former Employee) - Edinburgh - 12 February 2023

Please avoid this company. Treat their staff unfairly. Promised things at interview and when I got the job it was all a lie. Pension contributions from Honeywell are rubbish. No incentives for staff. Cannot talk to an actual person from HR you have to send an email and then wait 48 hours for a response and then again once you reply back. Management treat you like rubbish and if you are a fool. It’s like big brother is watching you. You do not feel at ease

Pros

None

Cons

Everything
