The facts are 38 in Mississauga and 50 in total across Canada (PEI and Ottawa). The Mississauga number is approx 10% of the remaining HON workforce after Project Tango handed manufacturing and repair facilities to Celestica. More RIFs and Furloughs are to be expected so we can boost profit numbers and maintain Shareholder Happiness.
Be very careful on what you sign upon leaving. I was put on a PIP after working for about 20 years (and saving their a several times). I decided to resign before being "PIPPED". Several months later I received a letter from Tempe HR* stating that they wanted to recover an overpayment of salary when Toronto switched payment periods (weekly / bi-weekly). This oversight occurred over a decade earlier in 2000, - so they obviously knew this well in advance and Tempe H/R thought that I had signed a paper (with Toronto H/R upon leaving) that stated that I would pay one weeks salary back to them. I left without signing any such paper, nor made aware of this matter by Toronto H/R before I left.
**This only added insult to injury, as the wording of this H/R letter from Tempe arrived, stating: "As you are aware, the advance recoverable paid in 2000 was agreed to be taken from your last payment, however, due to an omission, the amount of $XXXX.xx was not taken from your last paycheque".
Does anybody know the true number let go yet? What percentage?
Good luck there - Phoenix here, a ton of anxiety in the air
What departments
What % is that for the site?
45-49 people total is the talk - a number of higher level managers among that number. There were also a few who quit in the past few weeks as well.
how bad so far ?
