Diversity at UTC

UTC is a company that thrives on innovation.

Innovative thinking requires open minds and a willingness throughout the company to welcome new ideas and different points of view. We actively embrace diversity within the company - both in the workforce and in the way we approach problems. We believe that a rich mixture of cultures within the company enriches us all.

New employee voices: Why I joined UTC

Mike Wallace
UTC Fire & Security
"I was looking for a company that was a strong competitor in the international market. UTC's global presence is large and offers the opportunity to experience many different aspects of business. I feel confident I'll get the necessary exposure to find that niche where the company and I both benefit most in the long run."

Carmen Gonzales
Hamilton Sundstrand
"Ever since I was a kid I've been interested in space and flight. I find it a very exciting, leading-edge industry. When I first entered college my aim was to be employed by a company in this field. Although I knew that Hamilton Sundstrand manufactured aircraft systems and propellers, I didn't know they had such a long history with space equipment. I have a great job in a field I enjoy. I feel like I am doing something important, and doing things that not everyone gets to do."

Jocelyn Colon
Otis
"The career path options at UTC are limitless. While allowing me to grow professionally, the company offers the opportunity to work within many different industries, and with the possibility of international travel. The prospect of travel is very appealing. I couldn't think of a better working environment in which to start my engineering career."

Willie Douglas
Sikorsky
"UTC's Employee Scholar Program is one of the best educational programs in the country. The company pays up front for your college education and gives you time off from work to study."

Denise Bator
Pratt & Whitney
"I was very motivated by the opportunities that Pratt & Whitney offered, and I realized that UTC was a company where I could grow and develop a strong career path. I knew that at Pratt & Whitney I would find plenty of opportunities, but that if I wanted to move, I would have opportunities within the other business units as well."
