Reviews
Could be anything from writing a project proposal, to doing drawings, scoping and spacing the engineering of a new project, being on site decommission a site, establishing a new site, servicing an existing site, meeting with stakeholders and clients, meetings with business leaders, or formal training to upskill.
In general Honeywell takes care to ease you into your career and work with little stress, this can be a double-edged sword as confident and eager graduates may find Handover of responsibility can be slow. 4 months into the program I have completed a lot of training with more still to go which at times can make you feel like you're still at uni. But I have been shadowing & helping with the fulfilment of a massive project, with the prospect of much more to come.
Currently my day-to-day responsibilities evolve around upskilling myself my attending training's to better understand the application/services we provide our customers. I also work on conducting system analyses of site systems and creating estimates for software upgrades to provide to respective account managers. Some of my key day-to-day responsibilities as I learn all the technical aspects of my role will be to perform system upgrades at various sites to provide customers with Honeywell's latest HBS applications and services, and resolve technical issues that arise with applications.

Pros and cons of working at Honeywell Australia and New Zealand
Pros
The graduate program. They empower the graduates by truly believing them to be the future managers and leaders of the company. From this they offer top notch training and support.
The culture - how welcoming and helpful people are towards interns and grads.
Given the size of the company, there seems to be an opportunity for a lot of career progression/development, and lateral and vertical movements within the company seem possible. 2. Additionally, the team that I work with currently is highly supportive and the managers value my development.
The ability to quickly jump into working or real-world projects and sites whilst shadowing industry professionals who have a lot to teach you.
Professional exposure and growth opportunities. Honeywell has a wealth of incredibly smart employees across the globe across all incredibly diverse parts of the business who are willing to impart knowledge to you and give you opportunities if you work hard and reach out.
Cons
There are lots of procedures, but this is common to most big companies.
Steep learning curve if you haven't been exposed to the type of work but the Honeywell staff/team is super supportive.
I was hoping for a high-rise office in the middle of the city.
While Honeywell is an amasing place to work, the most challenging aspect can be the high expectations and fast-paced nature of the projects. Managing multiple responsibilities and ensuring top-quality results can be demanding, especially when juggling tight deadlines. However, this challenge is also an opportunity for growth, pushing me to develop better time management and problem-solving skills. The supportive team and access to resources help mitigate these challenges, turning them into valuable learning experiences.
The industry is confusing.
