Less than 250 accepted. Which is 7% of people who got the offer.... Merged Q3/Q4 all hand meeting scheduled on week of October 5th. Announcement ? Some people at badge office said things are not looking good... Wait and see.
voluntary retirement packages GAC offered was 2 and 2 Almost no one accepted the package thus on 8/12 The across the board layoffs begin!
Since the old guys GAC wanted to dump refused the packages offered the labor department will come in and together with HR do a fair and methodical cut to workers of ALL ages. This is due to GAC hacing a history of firing older workers. So all of you... — read more

The Axe Falls Monday 06/27

July
They lie every meeting to your face. It's easy for a CEO to tell you that ohh the health insurance is just the way it is these days when he makes 10x what you earn,then try and use your "insurance". Pay dearly for it. .....or meeting is same as they... — read more
GAC IS LYING TO YOU
GAC is not giving people temporary time off... THEY ARE GOING TO START LAYOFFS AGAIN IN JULY! Get out while you can. Especially since they keep POS's and get rid of good people. They don't pay that well either... GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why no posts right now?
I see people were posting on Gulfstream layoffs before, why quiet during this round?
Security Layoff
Gulfstream just laid off their security officers and managers
LAYOFFS R COMING
Rumor is they are going to do another RIF in MAY 2016. Be careful
Funny how they fired people, but contract agencies are looking for Tech I and Tech II's
Wanna hear something that'll make you mad if you were just fired? I was contacted by a few contract agencies and they said they were hiring for Gulfstream and I was qualified!!! but for $18/hr... I was almost making 2x's that. So it just goes to show... — read more
This company is no longer Gulfstream- it is General Dynamics now.
This company is no longer Gulfstream which was at one time a good company to work for. It now is all about General Dynamics, and upper management kiss GD butt! So they can all get big bonuses. They pick a week before Christmas to layoff 500 regular... — read more
Completion Center in Brunswick, GA
I heard they are closing the completion center in Brunswick, GA in March 2016. When this happens all those employees and support staff will be without a job. I heard this from a manager but not sure it is true. I will be effective if this is true.
No Surprise
Well layoff day is here - Let's see how much of that transparency is true and how much is usual and documented Gulfstream bullshit. Let's see how many perm employees are replaced by worthless f---ing HCL contractors. Let's see how many Docker wearing... — read more
Contactors rights
Contractors get treated so poorly, direct employees are too cocky and look down on all contactors, management needs improvement in all sectors, and can the long beach site management get better food during holiday/employee lunchins WE'RE ALL TIRED OF... — read more
I call bull
If the company is hurting for money, why have there been several meetings with catered food this past week? If money is scarce, why are we having the annual employee dinner this Tuesday? Will leadership give away the usual Playstations, Xboxes, dvd... — read more
good but
It's a pretty good company unless you work in IT - Would hate to be the new CIO and have to clean that cluster f--- up - Amazing what a debacle it is and just how many managers have no idea what they are managing. I'm simply amazed that company can... — read more
Good luck to all

Intern's View
I am sorry you have to go through layoffs. I see quite a bit of negativity on this web site. Here is my rather positive experience: I worked as an Operations Management and Industrial Engineering intern at the Fabrication Center (Seat and Carpet... — read more
Is Mexico going to be affected?
I left in 2011
Effective on January 1, 2016 all business units will move from 4x10 workweek to 5x8 workweek
Say bye bye to your work-life balance fairy story
Contractors are treated so poorly here
Gulfstream uses contractors all the time to - they are used as a buffer to permanent hires. If you are a contractor, expect to be abused, big time. Expect insane hours and deadlines, you will be discarded as soon as work slows down. Also, the company... — read more
Under-investment in IT - pay the piper
Do not have much to add on layoffs, it's pretty straightforward and nothing more to add here. However, a lot of locals who work their way into positions of middle management really do not know how to operate a business, I mean, the basics are... — read more

Dallas Service
The service side was way overstaffed with layers of mid management a few years ago & hard to deal with . As a former customer I always enjoyed working with the service technicians on the floor that is what kept me coming back , but they no longer... — read more
Is IT Department going to have layoffs
I may be interviewing very soon for a position in the IT department - do you know if they will be laying people off? I'd hate to join Gulfstream, live my current job and be laid off immediately.
Severance Payment
Do you know what a typical severance payment would be?
Do not forget the support layoffs
"modest layoffs of our indirect support staff - employees who do not work directly on an aircraft and do not support those employees who work directly on an aircraft"
