Farmington, CT

Current Employee – been working at United Technologies

ProsStorng leadership team to lead the company.

ConsLess focus is placed on employees as a financial-driven company. They treat you as a number and a smaller number of employees means a good job of management and more bonuses.

Advice to Senior ManagementSince economy is turning around and UTC is making money with a high stock price. Pay you employees fairly, since a regular emplyee will not get a year-end bonus.

East Hartford, CT

Former Employee – worked at United Technologies

ProsYou work with some of the best engineers in the world. Pay and benefits are excellent. The company has a long and proud history and the employees are proud to be associated with the company.

ConsSenior management is a good old boys club. Limited opportunities for anyone who is not is the club. They will acknowledge excellance but will not promote.

Advice to Senior ManagementThere are several dedicated employees that deserve a promotion (in pay grade only) that stay only because they love the company. Don't take advantage of them, promote them.

Rockford, IL

Former Employee – worked at United Technologies

ProsGreat experience for co-ops, most of the co-workers are extremely helpful and want the co-ops to succeed - they understand that co-ops come in with little to no knowledge and are more than willing to help

ConsThey have no real program in place to hire co-ops. They train them well but then when hiring time comes they string the co-ops along saying they want to hire them but they are not sure what positions are available for full time until other companies have snatched them up

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
