Stupidity got us into this mess...why can't it get us out? Will Rogers.. and every honeywell exec ever (except Anne)

Was recently approached by recruiter to interview for Honeywell Kanata Ontario location? Does anyone have any feedback. Glassdoor and indeed have reviews but not sure how much you can trust these reviews.

Hearing that the board is interviewing both John W and Darius as a potential CEO for the Aero business if Honeywell splits. This will be great for us.

No matter what’s going on, workers always seem to end up with the short end of the stick. Even when it seems to have nothing to do with us.

Generally we agree/d not to steal from each other, sometimes we agree to even go in the same direction. Results varied. Can’t say I didn’t see the breakup coming.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/honeywell-plans-breakup-under-pressure-184624445.html I don't think Bloomberg runs this without pretty reliable sources. Two public companies, basically Aero and everyone else. Now the question is where do existing... — read more 

Watch your back at Engines! Layoffs imminent!

Can anyone share the cost of COBRA if you retire prior to 65? Honeywell pays about 2/3rds of insurance cost while employed. So wondering if I can just look at what I’m having deducted now monthly and multiply by 3? Not sure Honeywell escalates... — read more 

Looking to get any insight on ~20 plants that HON plans to spinoff. Anyone heard any news on this? Open to hearing about how the new company can learn from Garett/Resideo/Advansix

Morning all - I’ve recently been offered and plan to accept a new role at another organization. I am looking for advice / input on how I can ensure that I receive my MIP incentive while possibly being as good an employee as possible. I see 2... — read more 

Any advice? Has anyone done it? Can you recommend an attorney?

Let’s hope Honeywell chooses change. After an unfortunate two-decade journey into the “shareholders first” cul-de-sac, our industry deserves better. Pretty good summary of the situation from Kevin @ Aviation Week. He pointed out specifically how... — read more 

It seemed promising at first glance but that's where it stopped as well. As soon as I started working I regretted it. Insane hours, laughable pay, and an environment that drains the life out of you. It's my second job and all I got from here is a... — read more 

There’s been a lot of contradicting rumors. Any reliable news?

Yeah, they manage that brand carefully with principles. One of them caught my eye… “Don’t have temporary people make permanent decisions.” Albert Broccoli

How did that really work out for GE Aerospace? Last time I looked GE Aero has underperformed the market and peers with revenue declining more than 3% per year for each of the last three years. Over the last ten years they are down 50% in revenue... — read more 

This isn't something that has happened before. Anyone have a clue what it could be about? My mind's racing through every worst-case scenario. I’m completely spiraling over here.

With all other SBUs being sold off or spun out, only thing that remains is the Automation+UOP combo. That would be some strange combo. Or is UOP also being sold/spun out, anyone know? It does have a very high flying CEO.

Heard recently that we are going to have layoffs in Aero

Friend told me that is still at IGS that their factoires are totally sc--wed and they are having to let customers know they are going to be way late on everything. How could this place get any worse....Wow...Just Wow....Anyone know what is going on... — read more 

I am hearing rumblings of more changes to org structures and business strategy in BA. Anyone out there with some intel? I can't imagine we won't be facing layoffs at some point in the near future.

Who has a nicer HQ?

Hello all, I am an engineer within Honeywell aerospace. I saw the news about the upcoming spinoff. I am very ignorant as to what this will mean for me and my engineering peers. Is this a soft signal of layoffs to come? What other possible negative... — read more 

Anyone else or just our group?

With the high probability that Aero is going to be spun off in the coming months, what’s the consensus on a new name? If we’re sold, best guess as to who buyer will be?

Activist Investor, Elliott Management who has over 5 Billion invested in HW is pushing HW to sell the Aerospace Units. Does anyone know which units & locations are up for consideration?

I’m in the process of rolling over my legacy Honeywell pension, and wow. The online resources are full of dead links, out of date phone numbers, references to an app that is no longer used, and just overall pretty cr-ppy. If you’re sitting on a... — read more 

When I started at Honeywell, I didn’t expect to figure out within just a few months that ten percent of the people do 90 percent of the work - at least in my area. It’s like there are several managers for every single worker, and the balance between... — read more

Performance metrics are supposed to highlight who’s excelling and who’s falling behind. But at Honeywell, they’ve twisted the whole concept. Instead of rewarding top performers, it’s become a sneaky way to target employees and push them onto PIPs... — read more

He brought his politics to NC and relished orchestrating the firing of good employees because of the v@x.

Load up Aero with a bunch of 2024 writedowns to make the other businesses not look so pathetic. Tanking the stock to save his little empire in Charolette. EM must have let Vimal know he was not part of the future.

In the latest twist for Honeywell, the company may feel like it’s stuck in a scene straight out of E.T.—but this time, it’s not the alien dialing home. Reports suggest ex-Honeywell employees and shareholders might have taken a proactive approach... — read more
