For anyone drinking the kool-aid that textron hands out...wait till what it tastes like when they’re kicking you out on the street and done with you regardless of your years of service to the company.

anyone have a guesstimate on the numbers of people affected? Example bargain unit, salary exempt and salary non exempt?

Textron Aviation does not want to lay off any employees. Employees create value = profit through labor. Folks do not take it personal but we know it is if you're the one being laid off, your life style, family, health insurance, etc. are all... — read more 

Tell those of us furloughed what is happening. The discussion is dancing around the specifics. Or are some things still rumor.

Heard this before in "98" going to streamline General dynamics, shipyard went from 18,000 to about 6,000 in under 5 years. (Electric Boat)

The memo was sent this afternoon from Draper. Workforce reductions are coming. It’s now a FACT.

If... this just an if. But if we are in bargain unit and get laid off, will we be able to vote on the new contract?

Now when are layoffs supposed to be coming?

Any word on extending furlough past July 6th?

Word is Monday is the big day! My uncle in tooling told me!

They go out friday. 1325 in first round

Can Textron layoff employees while they are on furlough.

Was told by mgt that it is starting to turn around quicker than first thought. looks like we might not have any layoffs!!!!!

Just heard lay-off notices go out June 8th?!

Labor is receiving phone calls to go back on the 1st or the 15th of June by choice. Salary is receiving calls and being told to come back on the 1st or the 15th of June, with no choice of either. if you are going back on the 1st you are covering the... — read more 

Anyone heard any information on the longitude line? Extended furloughs or layoffs? I go back Ma 18th. Just wanna know what to expect.

I heard we might get lucky! Another month!

Any word on lay-off announcements, furlough, June 1st return Voluntary retirement offer.

Read an article about Netjets cutting back on their 2020 orders! That paired with the lay-off rumors has me wondering how long the company will go before announcing anything. Thoughts?

This is one of the worst companies of all time. I wouldnt wish working there on my worst enemy. They crushed a class company at Cessna, they shouldn’t even be allowed to use Cessnas logo.

Anyone heard anything about a third round of furloughs?

Any word on lay-off numbers or a Voluntary Retirement Offer.

From a director friend of mine tonight. They were asked today to start ranking employees for substantial layoffs coming shortly. Said he expected them to go into place in the next 30 days. So much for all that new culture message and values. The... — read more 

I work for Textron Aviation. Right now we are on a 4week furlough. We have a date to come back to work but it could change. It's scary. They are doing Furloughs in hope to avoid a layoff, because planes are not selling right now. No one wants to buy... — read more 

It’s a 4 week furlough out of the next 8-10. Not like it hasn’t happened before. The Engineering group already went thru layoffs in the 4th Qtr 2019. Have to see what happens. Keep thinking about it, and you’ll worry yourself to death over it.

Textron's current furlough is due to parts shortages...parts produced by Textron facilities. This is due to their shortsightedness.

I know things are looking bad for anybody working (or not working, as it stands right now) at Textron right now, but everybody needs to remember this is just temporary. The government can't afford to let this entire sector fail. There will be... — read more 

any able shut down talk?

Is this widespread? Is it affecting everyone?

It's getting worse, so sad. Good luck all.

I am in management at Textron Aviation and there has been no talk about furloughs. They are talking about doing a 1 week shutdown in April instead of July this year due to how slow it is at this time. All the production lines are expected to be up... — read more

I think the employee count information has to be released to the public. Do you know how many people work here? How about the overall people count at the main location at Providence?
