Pros

Honeywell offers new employees a supportive start with easy onboarding, provided equipment, and digital self-service tools for HR and IT. The culture encourages flexible hours, cost-saving virtual collaboration via Teams, and clear procedures backed by training, all within a stable, globally recognized organization. CORA PPM provides a centralized, configurable platform with strong executive dashboards, live Gantt views, and integrated financial/risk tracking.

Cons

Despite having documented procedures, Honeywell’s project execution often suffers from inconsistent implementation, particularly in critical project controls like schedule baselines and progress measurement systems. I have experience role overload, expected to simultaneously manage cost control, scheduling, and progress tracking without dedicated on-site schedulers—especially on mega projects where one planner may be stretched across multiple workstreams. This challenge is amplified by heavy compliance and reporting demands, making it difficult to maintain focus and efficiency in fast-paced project environments. CORA PPM scheduling engine lacks the depth of Primavera P6 or MS Project, performance lag, limited report customization, a steep administration learning curve, and weak native directory/task features for enterprise rollout.

Pros

The team is great and people are excited to have you there. You are given value-added work and projects week 1. There are a lot of other interns at both the graduate and undergraduate level so there is a strong sense of intern community and support. If you have to relocate for the internship, complete housing is provided (they find you an apartment and pay for everything - results on the apartment itself may vary but are generally close to the office).

Cons

Varying start dates led to varying first day experience. The onboarding day for those who had it day 1 was great, but some interns got it after their first week and had little direction day 1.
