The RIF email contained a link to the Honeywell policy on the topic, but I could not find information on severance. I have also searched internal documents and found no further information. Is Honeywell severance a standard package? Does improve with... — read more

Please confirm if the class action lawsuit brought against Honeywell International for a variety of wrongful employee terminations is fact. It does not sound good for the company's future !

Would all of us applying for RIF send a strong message to Aero? In essence it be as if no one volunteered and make them choose folks the old fashion way. Just a thought that is gaining steam

My manager told us that all WFH exemptions will have to be approved by Coty. Which means there will not be any exemptions. Everyone must show up at a Honeywell facility somewhere or they will be terminated.

Time to slowly (or quickly) ramp up the number of sick days in Q4. A 20-40% productivity reduction should be more than enough to offset those pesky productivity improvements that have resulted in RIFs and furloughs.

Wouldn't it be interesting to know who is so close to management that they can post information before it's actually anounced? I have been monitoring this forum for months and it's been pretty spot on for the most part. I know things no one else... — read more

Honeyhell will not be around in one year. They are positioning it to be sold off by division. It is awful tempting to go with the RIF, but at almost 60 the prospects for another job are not real good.

I know volunteering for the coming RIF sounds so attractive. Most of us would love to get out of here. My question is this. When you are nearly 59 years old, you are too young to retire yet too old to realistically land a decent new job (statistics... — read more
