Honeywell's New Vision Statement: Check Your Ambition at the Door

Time to unionize - lets go for Honeywell Gold
It is time to fight back. How do we unionize. We need site representatives and start coordinating our efforts across the US. If we can send a space craft to the outer edge of our solar system, then we can unite and fight back. Enough is enough.
Torrance Facility
Does anyone know how many workers were let go at Torrance?
Say Good-bye to your Christmas Holidays!!
Heard from a reliable source Hon HR is now considering eliminating the paid holiday week at the end of December for 2017 and beyond. A few more years of this and there will be no benefits left at the company.
Shameless
Dave Côte is absolutely ruthless. In 2013 he was a leader of corporate CEOs lobbying to cut social security benefits for retirees. That's right using Honeywell PAC employees' donations (which Honeywell intimidates band 4 employees and above to join)... — read more

New retirement plan is reason
RIF is pushed back due to overwhelming amount of volunteers scaring management and the fact of the packages they would have to pay out. Honeywell is going to force everyone on to a new retirement plan so they can force people out a lot cheaper than... — read more
Wonder if timing of RIF is some how tied to JDA buy-out.
Seems interesting that word spreads the RIF is pushed to September about the same time as the Blackstone Group is offering JDA Software a financing plan as an option to being taken over by Honeywell. Hmmmm the RIF brakes came on pretty quick.

Well, if it happens to me in late Sept I at least have severance pay though New Years day.... I would think.
HTSI employee transfers to other Honeywell businesses blocked
I heard that part of the deal with KBR included not allowing HTSI employees to transfer to other Honeywell entities thereby avoiding a brain drain after the announcement of the sale. Is this true?
Mexicali
