More qualifications, less chance of promotion
the odds are that if you're qualified and knowledgeable in your role, the odds of you being promoted are not good. I'm not sure if it's because they know they have too many chiefs and not enough native Americans and promoting them reduces... — read more

Disturbing trend of Promotions
Been with Sperry/Honeywell 30+ yrs. I am seeing disturbing trend of new promotions where we have many VPs and Directors, and multi levels of Directors reporting to Directors and added layers of mgmt. This happened in '90s before Honeywell tanked. Now... — read more
Rumor: Honeywell and Siemens to merge.
If you can't merge with United Technologies then take the next best option. Could make Third Point investment moot.
Mid-Yr Reviews
So does anyone anticipate that the mid-year reviews will drive a new attrition situation? Is that what leadership has been waiting for... before a new RIF/Furlough announcement is dropped? Does anyone have insight into this?
Group Universal Life
So I am 55 years old and will be here 33 years soon. I have always purchased GUL equal to 5 X my Salary. I'd like to retire in next 5-7 years but wonder what my options are for Life Insurance then. Retirees out there....what did you do?

Rumors that R&O has been sold.. anyone hear anything?
Don't take VP's words at face value
In previous my role with Honeywell, I hosted many VP visits. They will tell the factory floor one thing like we are looking out for you, business is in flux, great job on your HOS Journey and all sorts of warm fuzzy things. But behind close doors... — read more

Honeywell Aerospace Tucson
We have 4 Aerospace VP's coming to Tucson 7/7/17 to find out why we have so many Engineers leaving. It should be fun.
The real issue at Honeywell
Real issue is that the old business is not the new business. There are products we won't make any more when the sales stop. Volvo isn't making gasoline only engines ....tough luck if you aren't on the hybrid line. Yup, so much this, @O6kOXxe-2abx... — read more

Wrong people are getting rewarded with latest Honeywell RIFs
With the exception of the last three RIFs, in all other RIFs over the past 30 years they have cut people, with total disregard for departmental work-load, under-staffing, or OT, as they use to select a target number, or percentage, and instruct the... — read more
Honeywell is too scared to rock the Greer boat
It is possible to shut down Greer and re-qualify parts at another facility. The reason it takes so long to qualify changes at Greer is the testing is done at another site and Greer is put at the bottom of the list. No one wants to make changes at... — read more

Are you in the win-win waiting game?
Many of us want out, and they won’t let us go, even though there is little or no work now, and nothing on the horizon, and we certainly don’t fit in with the new direction in which the company is heading. And it does not make sense for us to leave on... — read more

Rats fleeing the sinking ship in Greer!
The ship is going down in Greer, and the management rats are fleeing. Chief finance guy is leaving now. Rumor coming out of Tulsa is that Greer is closing in August. Does the finance guy know something they aren't telling everyone else?

Furloughs coming soon!!!
I'm in Aero and just heard the there will be back to back furloughs in July!!!!! They will take 1weeks pay from each paycheck in July
The Grass is not always Greener on the other side
I was laid-off in the big RIF last September and it wasn't because of my performance reviews. I had a 5-block rating on the 9-block grid and had decent reviews - so I definitely was not a "right elbow" victim. I had been with Honeywell for over 20... — read more
