I did not like my current engineer position..so applied for an internal position..they interviewed me but closed the position without hiring anyone..ridiculous..not sure if my current department let the hiring manager know that they don't have a replacement for me yet in the pipeline.

It could be the posting was intended for someone specific (in-line promotion). It could have been someone else got the role and they haven't announced it yet. If it wasn't March, I would speculate your block position "was a red flag". By late May, your block position will be predetermined for the year end review. That's right, you could cure cancer in September but your boss listed you as block 6 during the Management Resource Review May/June time period. But hey, there isn't any quotas right HR?
Well now they see you want that job, you will get to do it along with your other duties...til they find someone cheaper
Or.. did you consider that your interview went poorly and they just gave up?
They have to show they are trying to hire even though they have no intention to hire.
Basically there is two HRs. The traditional one, and the busness side one. I cannot count how many reqs I opened to disappear 1-2 weeks later by business HR.
Yup. They just let go a contractor last week with about 5 weeks left in contract duration. Need to make the numbers for mr wall street
Lol. What a shithole.
Just get the heck out of HI. There are tons of good jobs out there. Why stay with a company who has policies like “ no promotions”, no guaranteed vacation, the 9 block, etc. Having to say good employees are bad is just ridiculous. Get the heck out.
@txc is correct. Headcount reductions usually begin with closing open req's and not filling them. Next is letting subcontract workers go. Then RIF's of full time employees if it goes that far.
Closing the req counts as layoff. Summer requirement to reduce head count gives credit for Req closed
