More Good News
Now we hear that certain non-represented folks have had their salaries reduced. Admins? Factory types? Management? Better than a 100% pay cut I suppose, but hardly a good sign.

Waco layoff rumors rampant. Engineering mainly, especially Flight Sciences.
Shame on L-3 and don’t beleive them As this dismal, painful, gloomy year ends, with loss of jobs, contracts and spirit, L-3 Mgmt. cashes in

L-3 CSW True Values as demonstrated by Val Snyder Greed, disloyalty and, narcissistic self-obsession top the list
Loyalty is claimed to be as a core CSW value. (L-3 management suggests that we be “loyalty to each other” wink, wink) But, you can tell a whole lot more about a company by their actions rather than their slogans. A few years back, our greasy conman... — read more
