I have no idea what they do there, but I worked for Honeywell before my current job, and I think they are a great company.

Since the reorganization within Honeywell the Tempe facility, I believe, is now under the Aerospace division. The facility does R&D and testing for valves of all types (ie. pneumatic, hydraulic), mostly for planes and submarines.
Not to sound negative but before the "merger" with Allied-Signal, Honeywell was a decent place to work. Now there are high turnover rates and lingering layoffs always on the horizon. I haven't worked there for several years but I have a couple friends and a finace who are still there. If you have any questions I could try to get some answers for you. |

One of our buyers worked there several years. I have chatted lightly with her about her former job, but aside from the part that she bought for that division I can't provide much info, sorry.

The site used to be a manufacturing/assembly site of valves. They also test valves that are built by outside vendors. Most of the manufacturing is gone, assembly and test remain.
Engineering roles will consist of checking out of spec hardware, figuring out by there might be high failure rates in certain valves/applications, R&D etc. You will have close contact with the mechanics, management and enigineering from the vendors that provide parts. Hope this helped, send me an IM if you want. That was the first HON site I worked at. |
