Whoever come up with this migration plan should be fired on the spot. What a complete sh-t show. No support. These leaders have no clue.

The migration was and is still an absolute sewer-show dumpster fire! The tone-deaf a-holes at the top, who have dedicated executive IT teams to support them, seem to think that this a great idea. They even told employees that the migration couldn't be allowed to interrupt customer commit dates! The only thing this migration has done is interrupt commit dates and everything else. What a bunch of absolutely worthless c-suite dipsh1ts run the company!
@jz they don't do that at FL51. They stick to that good ol boy network and perpetuate the same garbage that has been happening since the beginning.
@yh yep I did just that. I moved from the Redmond office to Amazon and doubled my pay. FAR more work and the commute su-ks but five years later I have more than a million in my accounts that would not be there if I had stayed at Redmond. I still am haunted by Honeywell and the experience there. Treating people like cr-p leaves a smell about the entire place and it creates long grudges. People like me who moved on but cannot stop telling everyone how bad it was. Honestly I never want to see another accelerometer or radar again.
@bn if you want to b!tch about pay....why don't you go work for Amazon? So many that whine and cry about pay when they don't contribute sh!t to the company. Just sit in a cube browsing the Internet and complaining....
Another day, another queue of people of at my window to fix the broken scripts AI generated by consultants being paid $1000/hr for months to do 20 minutes worth of work.
For heavens sake do not be onsite when you do the migration.
@kv they tried to fired them but the emails and teams messages bounced
Migration is a complete disaster that is still ongoing. It's like a giant, slow motion train wreck that you can't escape. The tone deafness of senior leadership is uncanny. If my team and I performed like this, we'd all be fired on the spot.
This is a really good take and reflects well what me and my team are seeing.
@jz your comment has no relevance to the horror show that is the employee credential migration workflow.
Alternative workflows were possible. For instance you could have just handed out new laptops to everyone prestaged.
IT owns what they chose. Disruption lost data and lasting impressions. Are there heroes? Absolutely.. the two ladies who were in my area at DV were awesome
The presence of heroes is a good indicator you are in a disaster zone.
Honeywell is such a rock solid brand in the industry. When you speak to investment companies, technology leaders, and advisory firms they all know and respect Honeywell. It seems only the employees are dissing the company.
Yes some leaders are tyrants and made the company like being in Dante’s fifth circle of he-l, but that’s not the norm.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
@c0 You clearly have not been at Honeywell very long, prepare for pain, lots of it.
What happened so far in the company ? Yesterday was BA…today is IA? Or maybe every day is IA
@c0 bahahahahaha. - you good person have fallen for the corporate coolaid.

@bn Be thankful to have your job while you have it. Have faith in leadership and the company will thrive.
@b8 correction — we have the best leaders Honeywell money can buy. look up the salary for a principal engineer at Amazon. Extrapolate to director and key architects. We pay Pennie’s on the dollar for what real industry talent gets a big companies. Honeywell might as well be a mom and pop org.
Save you some time : mean salary at Amazon for a principal engineer is $240k with average total compensation of $640k after bonus and stock awards. That is average folks. What was your MIP?
Hard agree. The IT leadership of remainco and aero should both be fired for this clusterfu-k. Utter incompetence.
PC migration is averaging two full days per person around me and lots of things are still broken after that.
@b8 oh there’s definitely a Honeywell culture. It’s just not a good one.
This is not true. We have some of the best leaders that money can buy. The problem is that we cannot integrate the businesses we buy into a single Honeywell culture - which would make even Steve Jobs head spin.
