So you've been working your bu-t off and you're "due for a promotion". Sounds to me like you were a college grad about 18 months ago....
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't believe everything your professors told you. You are not likely nearly as special as you were told.
Maybe free ice cream and the ability to buy over priced food from cr---y food trucks.
When I was promoted from Band 2 to Band 3, I was told by the hiring manager that any salary increase beyond 10% would need VP approval. I went back to my old manager and he said that is true, so I happily took my 10% raise. That was 5 years ago. Since then, raises have been minimal.
Hope for a digital bravo.
Don't expect a promotion unless you are part of the good ol' boy network or sleeping with a manager. Even then a raise won't be more than 5%.
If you are truly "due" a promotion, and work in Olathe, then you can expect a tin of gourmet popcorn, an umbrella for working indoors during construction season, and an employee of the month parking spot next to Cap'n Ahab's Hummer. Cheers!
Sad but true @1qqs+1aT4aJk2
Unless you personally know a "Leader" or a high ranking manager who will pull you to your next job, I wouldn't count on it. If you do good work and you work a lot you will get more work, not promoted.
I was due for a promotion too. Then those talks got cancelled and I was RIFed. No one wants to pay for your labor. Don't expect to be paid for the work you do at HON.
I presume that you think you are "due for a promotion". Don't put to much thought into how much you'll get, 'cause it ain't gonna happen and you'll just be that much more disappointed.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Working hard for Honeywell and expecting to be rewarded? That's funny. The only people who benefit from your hard work is mad dog and the shareholders. You get nothing, but maybe you'll get a thanks one time.
Working your tail off is the worst thing you can do because you’ve set expectations for high hours in your promotion.
The correct approach is to be over-productive. That includes off-loading work on peers and/or outsourcing. Overworking yourself
HR Policy guidance says never more than 11% max for exceptional promotion candidates. I have seen this exceeded when an imminent business threat exists.. most often a cleared ASIC developer who has another offer on the table. Recognize that promotions are now filtered by diversity goals.
If you are a diversity candidate immediately demand a promotion and placement in a fast track program of some type. Ideally go get a competing offer and sm--k it on the table. I wish I was you as the sky is the limit today.
If you are not eligible for some type of diversity credit then immediately begin looking outside Honeywell because your salary will not keep up with inflation even if you are promoted. You will be going backward for the next year or two. Pretty sure even pension accrual will not make sense given the levels of inflation that are now being forecast. Jump. Return later.
~10% don’t expect much more
@OP. It depends on the location and team but typically don’t expect more that 15-20% raise (without any bonus in band 3) after promotion. Others could provide their feedback too.
I moved from band 3 to a new job outside with 50% increase in base+ 15-20% bonus. I don’t think that I could have got this much in HON after a promotion. I don’t know you situation but I would suggest to try outside once.
