Pros

Interesting and challenging work, especially for chemical engineers and chemists. The premier refining/petrochemical technology company in the world.

Cons

After three years as a wholly owned subsidary of Honeywell, salary and benefit cuts and other changes are being implemented which have tanked morale and may hurt the long term viability of the business. There is a continued "top down" approach where corporate instructions and the Honeywell Operating System is more important than candid and frank discussion with the customer-facing troops.

Honeywell has a really good early careers program.

Pros

Some genuinely nice coworkers, that deserve better. Sometimes provide free food BUT consists of unhealthy options.

Cons

Extremely poor communication from management. Non existent most of time. When they do communicate, you are met w/ lies. Care about profit/numbers at the expense of employee health. Impossible production expectations without enough personnel. Management questions everyone but themselves. Equipment shortage and issues impact production as well. But blame is placed on production staff. Toxic coworkers that will get on the case of new workers for not being robots that operate non-stop. Depressing and loud environment, along w/ possible chemical exposure. Low pay and small raises. HR cares about business needs, not individuals. Stretching required every hour. Optional at first, but then management started enforcing. Computers and systems always slow and having issues. Language barrier. Diversity is great, but this can cause miscommunication w/ those who don't speak good English.
