General Atomics ASI is in trouble with many mismanaged project now dead in the water this company is bleeding both talent and money.
As someone has said January 2021 is going to be a sad time for that company simple due to the fact that their platform is just not what our Great country needs to fight a more capable enemy such as China and Russia.
The first wave was just to mitigate a problem that this company dug its self into and its entirely the fault of management hiring too many people for a program that was certain to be in the hands of GA.
I'm associated with the company in more ways then i wish to say and frankly GET OUT while you still can.
This first wave of layoffs was designed to not only get ride of people but to scare others into quitting.
That is way you only saw a 6% reduction of force.
Come January 2021 the second and more shocking wave of layoffs will happen and it will be far more than 6%.
Those who were let go in the first wave will get the jobs from some of the local defense contract companies and when its your time you may have loss the opportunity to get into a great company that is far better managed and will have say in the next drone of the future.
Skyborg program envisioned by the air force will be far too expensive and GA just got ride of some of their brightest engineers because the sh– bags in management feared them.
