Honeywell International Senior Electrical Engineer in Phoenix, AZ:   (Past Employee - 2008)

Pros

Recommend working at Honeywell only if you have no other option.

Arizona is a great place to live.

Cons

Non-technical upper management (business trained only) unqualified to properly manage a high-tech company - a widespread disturbing trend of which Honeywell is at the forefront. Environment is such that the best people are leaving and those remaining no longer care about doing a good job. People who once loved their jobs now only complain. Major customers are increasingly dissatisfied. It is so sad to compare the company now to that just ten or 15 years ago. Great managers (whom their people would do anything for) have all been replaced by mindless MBAs. Would state that more strongly but don't want this to be deleted.

Advice to Senior Management

Why are you destroying the company? Don't see how it can be more personally profitable than doing what's best for the company. Don't go to anymore seminars that tell you that you don't need to know anything about what your company makes. Bean counters make terrible leaders - trust your technical people. Realize that all people with somewhat-similar sounding job titles are not interchangeable.
