Worst examples of micromanagent that you have experienced?
I have to admit that I personally haven’t had any horrible experience with micromanagement here, but I had a colleague who decided to leave this company just for that reason because he couldn’t stand that pressure anymore. Sometimes I follow this... — read more
Censorship -- Read It While You Can!
Over the past few weeks this site has been increasingly following Big Tech censorship by deleting posts which question any of the woke narratives put out by the propaganda media outlets. Orwell's novel "1984" was never meant to become an... — read more
No WFH? Are you going to start looking?
Email came out that we all have to return full time to the office. Just curious, how many people plan to leave so they can work for a company that has a WFH or hybrid policy?
Is severance ever enough?
I know a few people who are praying to be laid off in the next round so they can collect severance and leave Honeywell for good. They don't have another job lined up, they're not even looking yet because they believe severance will give them enough... — read more
Honeywell Aero Instagram
A few great comments on HW’s last couple Insta posts. No wonder they haven’t posted anything for a couple weeks. Hahaha.
Nothing to do at work...
I remember once wishing I had this little work to do. I don't know what your situation is like, I hear from some colleagues that they are overwhelmed with work, but I don't have any work most of the time. I finish the job I have very quickly. This... — read more
HON managers say they "hire to fire" people to meet corp layoff and turnover requirements
Think about this if you are considering a job with HON. Or for current employees....... the new hire on your team that you just spent months of your time training could just be the next rugpull to meet some BS metric.
How supportive is your manager?
I would not like to accuse anyone, but it increasingly seems to me that my manager is actively sabotaging my work. The whole situation bothers me a lot. It led me to doubt my abilities until I heard from others of similar experiences with him. .. — read more
Is everybody working at HON depressed?
Think about it, when's the last time you casually chatted with your coworkers and everybody started laughing? I can't remember. Instead, it's mostly strained conversations where everybody looks like they lost someone close to them that day. No... — read more
No more temp checks for Deervalley!

Any new site closure rumors?
Last year all the rumors that I've heard about site closures turned out to be true and now there isn’t much talk about that. Is it possible that the company doesn’t have any new closure plans for the time being or is it just that the current plans... — read more
All the people who are talking about quitting
Has anybody actually done it? Everybody I know and their mother is talking about quitting and all of them are still at work the next day and the day after that and so on. If you're so determined to leave, why not do it? Or at least stop talking about... — read more

Honeywell is heading towards a pure software and design company
Its confirmed that Honeywell is moving themselves into a purely tech company that focuses on designing hardware but never manufacturing them. The manufacturing will be up to the thousands of suppliers at our disposal. Don't believe the baloney... — read more

What are the band 3 and 4 salary at honeywell for 2021? I'd like to hear about R&D positions in Colorado in particular
Manager 360
Why is a manager 360 not a mandate during HPD? Bad people managers should be trained or consistent low performing managers moved to an individual contributor role. Employees leave their managers rarely their jobs!

CEOs are hugely expensive - why not automate them?
If a single role is as expensive as thousands of workers, it is surely the prime candidate for robot-induced redundancy.
They don’t know how to get the best out of people?
I start with myself - very often I am so demoralized that I have no will to give the best of myself. I know a lot of people who were average employees here. Now they do incredibly good things in other companies. What does that mean? That means... — read more

HIPAC Do I or Don’t I?
Been getting pressure to increase my HIPAC to 2%. Currently at 1% and really don’t want to add to the insanity.
Warren Buffet Says Bad Leaders Pose Biggest Risk to Companies
They don't know what they're doing. But they know how to put on an appearance. CEOs spin their messages to analysts so much that they bear little resemblance to reality.
Life at Honeywell
Working at Honeywell entails being underpaid when compared to our competitors, receiving low (if any) bonuses, getting no support from your team, always having too much work, and not being able to make any kind of progress in your career unless you... — read more

People who left Honeywell to go to other large F100 type of companies - how different is it?
My first role out of college, worked across two SBGs (both not Aero) and while I’ve interned for other F100 type of companies I’m always curious how other companies are compared to here. I can see all the posts from you here and I agree with most... — read more

Why phoneix employees asked to reapply jobs, most literally changed roles/LOB
Looks like the whole of Phoenix employees were told to reapply their positions and almost everyone now changed roles and LOB in order to keep their jobs. What's leadership and HR intent ?
5 Competent Leaders left HON in April

Plenty of job openings, none for us
When people say there are plenty of job openings they're not wrong. I managed to find dozens of good ones in the last couple of months I've been looking. Sadly, none of them want those of us who are in my age bracket (mid-to-late 50s.) Out of the... — read more
