I left some years ago once things started to go south after the acquisition. It's really sad to see a once thriving company get so mangled for the sacrifice to wall street. Recently I heard some rumors that things are really falling apart now due... — read more
AERO hiring freeze again
first step always in the quick process to reductions in force
Who was escorted out today?
Guess we shall never know
Glendale Site
Any updates on Glendale? It's so quiet.
Honeywell Executive team's inappropriate behavior
Honeywell HR should look into the executive team's internal messages---HIGHLY inappropriate, s-xist and racist. Someone check out thier IM's. Heath bar espeically
Has anybody here survive PIP?
How did you manage to do it? Did it involve working extra hours? The one guy I know claims he worked 70- to 80-hour weeks for months and I don't think that's humane. We have days off for a reason. Any other tricks? Other than kissing up to your... — read more
When has Honeywell stopped being innovative?
Despite all the problems that we had during the years and despite many sh---y decisions that have been made by the leadership, the only positive side of Hon’s business was that the company was innovative. I don’t see much of that lately. Now it looks... — read more
COBRA sign up
For those who have signed up for Honeywell COBRA insurance, I’m curious about how the sign up process works.
Why is HW's health insurance so expensive?
It's just awful.
If you're good and have a cr---y manager, kiss your career progression goodby
I've seen managers sabotage their best employees because they didn't want to lose them. They do all they can to keep them in their current positions because they make them look good and they don't want to lose that, especially since most of them are... — read more
Kindof excited about prospects of a recession/layoff
Sitting at my desk working those extra revcog hours on a sunday, a holiday for some but not me. I was forced to trade my office for a generic desk before the pandemic. Be a team player they said. Open office plan. Two drawers. Two tiny monitors. ... — read more
Compensation gaps between executive and employee pay
The pay gap is huge. Rich are greedier than ever. It would be interesting to see how over the years the compensation gap between executive and employee pay became bigger and bigger... That would be an interesting slide share.
Will we ever have a flatter and more functional organization?
As all the records and layoffs happen the regular employees from the boron of the organizational pyramid always get cut, while multiple layers of useless management get to stay. Will they ever figure out that this is the road to disaster?
Org changes again in ISC
There are rumours that there will be some major org changes in ISC again and this time its their engineering team thats gonna get impacted. Any truth in this?
Big Layoffs on 6/16?
Heard it through the Grapevine. Anyone else hearing things?
Heard in HQ -- WFH in return for social media posts
Heard exec conversation about making remote work contingent on using that everyonesocial app/platform. Ugh.. manipulative. Pretty low. Avoid that trap.
Does this count as social media #everyonesocial
Want to do my part so I will be tweeting and retweeting social media posts from layoff with the #everyonesocial tag. This should help drive awareness. Now where is my Twitter bot api key?….
Inflation at all time HIGH, do you think Honeywell will adjust wages even if it’s temporary?
Survey says ….. Please leave your comments.
Green enterprises are like startups. Vulnerable?
I work on a small innovation project. We are treated like a separate co pany they say. Am i vulnerable to the same venture capital drought that is hitting startups?
Headed into recession
If we enter a recession, I'm afraid of what that would mean for HW. Total crash?
What exactly does the Chief commercial officer do
I was looking around and saw Amol Motivala is the Aero Chief Commercial officer and this seems kinda nebulous. Does anyone know?
If you have options, why are you still here?
I understand people like me who are stuck for whatever reason not leaving Honeywell, but what about those who have options but decide to stay? Honeywell has not lost all of its best talent yet and why that's the case is a mystery to me. What's... — read more
Mandatory overtime in Urbana
Peoples Republic of Honeywell forces mandatory overtime in Urbana, Ohio
SPEEA Invite
Did anyone else receive an invite to SPEEAs information session this weekend? Guess they will be at the Hilton on 47th st.
I expect to be compensated properly for my work
I don't think that's too much to ask. I don't have many complaints about my job, but this has become a huge issue for me. Since I've started looking at what's available, I was able to confirm just how underpaid I am at Honeywell. I mentioned this to... — read more
Let's face it, Honeywell is just plain broken.
Either leadership is unqualified or it's a cash grab. My advice: if you can, select lump sum pension and get out. Bankrupt companies have bankrupt pension plans.
The future of Honeywell
Why does it seem to me that we are concerned more about the future of Honeywell than our leadership? Does anyone think that those at the top have a vision and a concrete long-term plan for the company?
Is HW trying to stop talent loss at all?
My impression is that HW is no longer doing anything to stop talent loss. As long as efforts of the employees are not adequately compensated, the talents will be leaving. Morale is very bad. It's surprising that even more people are not leaving the... — read more
Hybrid WFH ending soon
Honeywell execs thrilled with Tesla's stance on return to office. Expect the 40+ in office mandate to be rolled out via soft communication channels soon. No big emails from K. Matters-More (than you) to avoid public critique. One-One with... — read more
Talent Drain at Aero Olathe Kansas
The attrition rate exceeds the hiring rate . Talent leaving, unexperienced techs are common occurrence here. Not to mention, the percentage of employees near the retirement age ready to get out.
Corporate Merit Increases
Struggling to make ends meet with that 2.5% merit increase despite inflation? Our leaders really took care of themselves. DA and AM got a 5% increase and GL an 11.5%. Must be good to work for corporate. All in the proxy.
How would you improve Honeywell?
I see so many of you complaining about the management and how they run the company but I never see any concrete examples of what could be done to improve things. Do tell me, what is it in the current economic climate and with the job market the way... — read more
Unsupportive management
Whenever I expect support from the manager, I become reassured that I will not get it and that I am left here on my own. He is almost always unavailable to me. Perhaps it's just me, perhaps I was expecting more than I can get at HW?
Another way in which leadership lacks the vision
With 40+ years in aerospace, what I see is history repeating itself. Nearly every 10-12 years there has been a huge turnover of personnel, either due to the graying workforce, layoffs, or downturn in business caused by external events - e.g., end of... — read more
Off balance
When I first applied here, I had no idea that I wouldn't have any work life balance here. Perhaps others knew that this is one of those companies that lacks that balance? While working at HW, I involuntarily turned into one of those people whose... — read more
There was talk about May layoffs
Does that mean this week is it, since I don't think anything major happened so far?
