My understanding is that the cost to repair the building on Veterans was cost po rohibitive given the dwindling employee population. The building is failing in many ways. Unsure why they spent so much money to fix it up in the last ten years. I understand they had the information for at least 15 years. This is a structure issue as much as a "no butts in chairs" issue. But they probably don't want anyone to know that. The building will either be sold to someone who doesn't care about the building issues....or knocked down for new development. Which is also kind of iffy....given the continued drop in employees. Also heard....Atlanta is likely going to close.....makes sense...no parking...no way to access the building...and a difficult employee force....hmmmmmm

They probably argue that it is somehow a trade secret or otherwise. Let's see how long it lasts here, censored.

1) Cryocath in Montreal will close and has been a sh-tshow of a project for over 6 years now. Production moves to a PR site that I won't mention because maybe that's the confidential part, according to their argument. The delay is from the PR-side. Considering the 4 sites in PR, you can work it out yourself. Ask yourself why the last Manufacturing Director left after a relatively short time there and went to an MA/MN site. I forget which, but you can find it.

Anyone else can show you the slow layoffs and reduction in capacity from production lines over time. The employees themselves know it and speculate all the time. Tons of them are close to retirement, so they're just sandbagging until the inevitable happens.

2) A California site is also slowly shutting down and has been for a few years. To not get this post removed, I'll tell you it is NOT Northbridge, and it is NOT Irvine. It is a site with an already low number of employees.

Enjoy.
