The long term ones who helped build this company and were then thrown overboard to boost the top guys pay. The ones who really built this Company.
TERRIFIED HBT CEO!!
Just look at his face in the town hall. It says it all......... :open_mouth
Stunningly tone deaf.
Someone from Bangalore asks Darius about RIFs and furloughs, and the replies are a firehose of meaningless business babble and no recognition of the pain they cause. Not an ounce of empathy on that stage.

RIFS should be done for now
I work for the Aerospace side and we had our RIF happen the day back from the Holiday shutdown. If you made it past 1/4 you should be safe until the next RIF. That was direct from my manager. Moral is at an all time low. If you haven't left my... — read more

There must be a Class Action Lawsuit starting for employees that are being denied WFH exceptions and Remote Worker status terminated?
Does anyone know of any firms or attorneys pursuing this? HR is hoping that people fall in line and start driving 50-100 miles ea way to work. If someone is classified with approved Remote Worker status, not just random WFH history, I wouldn't think... — read more
Mr Mahoney really?

Second round of RIFS starting Jan 9th
I think tier 5 and tier 4 are being hit again starting the 9th with more involuntary. Directors are making "appointments" with managers they have no business relationships with. Time will tell.
C'mon- we know there are some leaders watching this site that still have some shred of integrity left-it's time to STAND UP & do the right thing
Managers, directors and above- where are you? Like another poster stated, how can you look in the mirror, face your children, grandchildren, spouses, friends- do any of them realize what kind of leader you are? I hope- those of you that still do have... — read more

STRIKE while the iron is hot
Thrilled to see that the Teamsters 1145 refused the contract that Honeywell presented, it's time a group stands up to the monster.

Can someone explain why Honeywell squanders space earning opportunities?
For every worker charging a cost plus space program, Honeywell earns profit. Clearwater was a hard lesson in 2005 during a large RIF, more than 7M lost in revenue per week due to head count pushed out the door. Nothing was done to regain that revenue... — read more
Site announcement of Celestica take over of Tucson was cheered by employees

Just a heads up
Managers have been informed of this site and are monitoring accordingly. I only put this here so you can be nondiscriptive as possible. The Tempe announcement came because this site had info that ALT noticed and made the decision to announce.

VRIFed people cannot be happier to get out of the asylum.
