Anyone know if the severance is contingent on the severed employee being unemployed? It's be nice to go straight to a new job and still collect severance. Please don't respond with "who cares? Collect it anyway." I'm looking for Honeywell's rules on... — read more 

My manager told us that all WFH exemptions will have to be approved by Coty. Which means there will not be any exemptions. Everyone must show up at a Honeywell facility somewhere or they will be terminated.

Time to slowly (or quickly) ramp up the number of sick days in Q4. A 20-40% productivity reduction should be more than enough to offset those pesky productivity improvements that have resulted in RIFs and furloughs.

Wouldn't it be interesting to know who is so close to management that they can post information before it's actually anounced? I have been monitoring this forum for months and it's been pretty spot on for the most part. I know things no one else... — read more 

Translation: Nobody wants our old products anymore and with no investment in the future going on for a number of years now, no new products to offer. We have burned every customer we ever had so we are at the bottom of all supplier rankings. Since my... — read more 

Honeyhell will not be around in one year. They are positioning it to be sold off by division. It is awful tempting to go with the RIF, but at almost 60 the prospects for another job are not real good.

I know volunteering for the coming RIF sounds so attractive. Most of us would love to get out of here. My question is this. When you are nearly 59 years old, you are too young to retire yet too old to realistically land a decent new job (statistics... — read more

During the midyear review my manager said that HR was requesting relocation preferences for all employees without specifying if it was for short term purposes (i.e. balancing workload among sites) or long term (i.e. possible plant closure). Just... — read more 

Pay attention to the posts. There is one viral poster that trolls every new thread. He is the one that constantly includes the SAME stupid add-ons to Tim Mahoney's name (e.g. "baloney", "phony", etc). He clearly has nothing better to do and is a... — read more 

Here is a new rumor going around Torrance today. HoneyHell is going to offer or force those of us with pensions to a "Buy Out" Any substance???

Honeywell.... Best place to work in México 😃 no rifs.... Furloughs (vacations) recieving 50% of paycheck...merit increase ~7%... Thank you HON

Are they preparing for the fallout of another round of layoffs and pulling more perks?

Highly likely the whole point of the new policy is to generate attrition - saves on severance payments. IMHO

I heard within 2 weeks 6 MPLS Honeywell Engineers that work in the same area gave notice to leave the company. They are hurting bad for engineers. Good for them though.

I agree. I’ve been with Honeywell less than 8 years and I keep hearing how it used to be a great company. We keep using the Honeywell reputation as being a great company; however, it is no longer a great company. It exploits its salary employees by... — read more

Wrong about a whole load of stuff. Premature senility, or just a mean SOB who hates his employees as much as he loves money? http://finance.yahoo.com/news/honeywell-ceo-cote-admits-wrong-222416445.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma

Does anyone know the details of this reorg? I have heard there have been meetings on this but haven't heard any information yet.

Really? Then why has there been a multi-year ban on internal travel? Requests to bring teams together for face-to-face meetings have been consistently denied.

Why in the hell does Honeywell want to take us to the movies on Oct 18th? I will NOT be there. However I will click Accept on the email so they can waste a little more money. F. U. Honeywell.
