Procurement employees I know are being asked if they live within 50 miles of L3Harris location. It won't be long now.

Same thing append in Florida, everyone that lived 50 miles away and stayed remote got laid off the next month. Funny thing is my I play golf with a director of contracts for space and he lives 15 min from the office but stays remote. lol his words "its all corporate bs"
It's very simple; you work for a company that has a location. Your required to report to that location for work. I know you want to cling to your covid era work arrangements but, that really didn't work out. The work wasn't getting done. If this were profitable for the company do you really think they would be ending it? Obviously it has not been. You all know that if working remotely was profitable for the company, it would remain. And many of you did a superb job working remotely, but apparently enough of you did not to cause the company to end this practice. You have two choices; you can return to work and hope you're not laid off, or resist this process and be part of the huge RIF that is coming in April to Clifton. What's the matter? Don't think it's going to happen? That's what you thought last time. Stop sticking your head in the sand and hoping it will go away. It's going to happen.
This has been in the works for a while. If you live beyond the allotted line and get to stay remote - my word of advice: start looking immediately. They did this to some groups in Clifton, and then those who were allowed to stay remote were laid off in the next round.
HR claimed there were other issues causing it, but site leadership admitted it was because they were remote
Remote procurement has been a disaster from day one. Remote engineering is even d-mber. He-l, we've even had remote leadership! And none of it works! What's next, remote assembly? That would be just great. Send the truck to my house with all of the classified parts and I'll build you a transmitter and then the truck can come and pick it up later when I'm finished. Awesome! Can't wait.
The amount of buyers who constantly side with suppliers to just get dogshit parts coming in late. If they actually did their job I’d have compassion for their remoteness but if we are in they can come in…
@ah a request to who?
I'm not a remote worker... I show up on site in Clifton every day except my Fridays off...
So what the F**k business is it of theirs where I live? I'm really sick of this upper management probing and prodding into stuff that's none of their business. They're not paying for my gas, they're not paying for my tolls, and they're not paying my rent. I pay all of that out of my take-home pay, including the two and a half percent I got last year.
@a1 I know this is a question in SMS. There was a request from the top to update all the Remote work determinations by end of day yesterday.
What segment are you in?
