Thread regarding Honeywell International Inc. layoffs

Managers need to learn, “what goes around, comes around!”. No sympathy for managers that do the corporate dirtbags bidding and enforce the ALT ridicules rules, processes, goals and mandates!

Burn them out, stress them out, through them out and then screw them. It’s the Honeywell way!

Emergency staff meeting called tomorrow afternoon with our leader. Almost full blown panic as even they have no idea how we will possibly meet the q4 AOP goal. It's gonna be great!!!!!!!

I wouldn't want to be on the 4th floor of Sky Harbor when these q3 numbers come out!!!

You might be nervous too if you had peter principled your way to the top, have run out of underlings to save you, buzzwords to sell, things to cut, and have nobody else to blame. With no transferable skills that other companies might look for, many of the overpaid elite know they are on borrowed time as the company is forced to shrink and there is no place to hide. Telling employees to "row well and live" is not leadership.

The end game is near. We see structural reorganizations into blocks that could be further divested if buyers were to be found. Cash is being stockpiled in case there is an opportunity to buy something else to gut and buy time. GE bought time by setting up a finance/capital group and played loose with the numbers. See where they are now. Boeing pushed their workers to take shortcuts to speed an unsafe product to market. How did that work out?

There is still time to save the company with true leadership, investment, and the technical expertise remaining, but we settle for making N95 masks and UV light carts that other software industrials can only dream of.

Mad dog will run Aero into the ground, he's been doing it since 2015 when he was out into ISC all thanks to Tim. Tim is the real problem, he built this fortress of friends and put id–ts like Tarazi, Hillpot, Arlak, Ariola.....all in over their heads and have no clue how to manage themselves let along others. I've worked with all of them and they left me very unimpressed

• all a holes to be honest. These are the people closing sites down and have no idea what the sites actually do, other than cutting costs without regard to employees and customers. Tarazi should be kicked out with his bully tactics.....he pushes good people out of the org daily and Madsen wonders what's going on in GSI, go have a look once and awhile, wait you'll like what you see Mike because you hire 2 types of people...1 bullies like you or 2 young leaders that are scared to have a voice. I'm glad I was RIFed, HW aero started to s— when MM and his posee came in.

Also, for anyone thinking that hard work will save you or someone else from a RIF, you're delusional. The RIFs will happen regardless of how poorly or how well AERO does. Always remember we are changing into a software company so if you do anything that isn't software, IT or writing code for software, your days are numbered even if you exceed every target every single time.

Savvy?

Hallelujah!!!

Unattainable goals are a tool used when orgs are under achieving. They are only destructive when coupled with punishment for failure.

Honeywell’s issue is not the goal.. it is the pervasive attitude that any failure should be punished,explained,rcca created, and otherwise over analyzed.

If you are a director and you find yourself demanding reasons for that 1 day milestone miss—YOU are the reason I turned in my notice last week after multiple tries at voluntary RIF. YOU are the root cause behind an organization that FEARs small failure so much that large risks are impossible. Public humiliation of people for honest failure is not leadership ...it is bullying and it is cowardly.

My new boss asked me what I wanted most out of him and I said “courage”.. then I went through the mechanics of what caused honeywell to become a bloated risk adverse producer of sub par quality. Leadership that mistakes bullying for inspiration and fear for “engagement”

Its these "leaders" own fault. Anyone actually see the AOP goals when the year started? If you recall they were unachievable then, basically double for each SBU what we grew in normal years, with the added flavor of mandates expiring and almost all product launches pushed to the right because they keep cutting staff/ investment in our future. None of them wanted to stand up and speak reason to D as they want to be seen as "high performance". So we all get metrics we cant hit, then bullied and fired for not hitting them, which makes them even harder to hit. They have cut their way to a dismal future, wall street doesn't know cause its banking their promises and seeing our past performance, but it wont be pretty when reality hits. We have been saved by a long cycle business, long enough that TM could reduce cost/ reduce investment for years without ever needing be here for the eventual ramifications. Now that the ramifications are arriving there is no leadership, only a culture of fear masquerading as a culture of "future shapers".

You're not hearing me. Getting canned is not a punishment for me; it's a blessing. Frankly,I hope I do get canned so I can take a nice break and start over. Besides, if they can't meet the goals with the people they have, how does getting rid of MORE people help that problem? It's a rhetorical question and the answer is, mad dog has already played all the cards he has. He's not smart enough to think his way out of this and neither are the goons he surrounds himself with. When the RIFs, furloughs, and nonstop "hurry up" email strategies all fail, the game is up.

Goals are there for a reason. Many don't believe in it especially now but its a target, an objective that makes working a li'l more meaningful. And get this,if you don't even wanna meet your arbitary goals, you'd definitely be canned. Hows that for motivation.

Even more of a reason to not care about meeting any of these arbitrary AOP goals.

Directors and Sr Directors don’t make money if the qtr is meet. Some of you have no clue what you’re talking about. We are all in like the rest of you.

Same with me. My pay stays the same no matter what the stock price is or how much money Honeywell makes. That means I couldn't care less if we do or don't make the quarter numbers. If we do make it,all the directors and above make money; I don't get any of it. If we don't make it then hopefully some of them get laid off too. I'm done working hard so these guys can all get rich. Sorry not sorry.

What do you call a leader. These are not leaders they are selfish and don't care even in the morning s...t time about anyone below director level
Bunch of SO...
Worst ever component how treat the best of us who try. They only care to make up for stock options they got when took pay cut. HONEY F D DUE Leadership are not for us but self serving

@xcq+174mpg5T

I installed a pump that goes right back up the hill to dump the sewage onto the "leaders" that caused the problems in the first place. They get payed the big $$ deal with the sewage they create.

I'm not worried. The only thing those tools lord over us is our job and guess what, if there aren't enough of us now, getting rid of more of us only exacerbates the problem. Besides, who cares anyway? A RIF would be a nice break and then you get to go work for a company that actually WANTS to be successful. Imagine working for a place that values employees and treats them like assets and not liabilities? Man it sounds like heaven! RIF? Sounds good to me!

We are on the streets. They make $200k and are worried?

Don’t forget c-appp rolls down hill, and we are at the bottom holding a bucket.

I’m sure their pain will cause much more pain on the rank n file employees...
