RIF is BS?
I'm starting to wonder if the RIF in Phoenix Aero is BS . Anyone else?
Work From Home Surveys?
Does anyone on here have any inside knowledge on what the data being gathered regarding employees and their work from home schedules will be used for? I am afraid I know the answer.
September layoffs?
The email notification of the Honeywell Layoff was sent out on July 13th. This notification follows the WARN Act, 20 CFR 639.2. The employer is required by this law to give 60 days notice before a mass layoff or plant closure. (29 USC, 2102; 20 CFR... — read more

Modern industries taking over 404 building over here in aerospace location next to sky harbor airport with a long term lease bringing their machine shop over there. Great to boost morale for employees in our shop now :)

It's a lot like selling your car to pay your bills
The company is struggling and struggling big time compared to years past. Revenue remains strong because the people at Honeywell are doing a fantastic job selling future revenue streams for short term gain. It's a lot like selling your car to pay... — read more
CLW / ISC
Word on the street at CLW site is the RIF is for 65 people total. 15 people volunteered and a few in ISC saw the writing on the wall and got jobs elsewhere and have left or are about to. So that still leaves close to 60 people. Operators and touch... — read more
Activity Report
Any activity worth reporting at your site? It has been too quiet.
Potential sale to Luftansa?
new rumor heard at work yesterday, anyone else heard this?
Rumor
Dev shop at engines to be closed, cannot confirm it but thats the rumor
HPAC week, got email saying we should join the Honeywell political action committee. Why should we contribute to get more work that will be
Outsourced? And from what I gather it is for only band 4 and above to join who just got their MIP cut by 5%. Just one more request from above that shows they are thinking of themselves and not the workers.
Honeywell is not struggling.
Stock prices remain near record highs, cash reserves are in the billions, the company is buying companies and buying back stock hand over fist. Layoffs and furloughs, benefit cuts, etc. are the business model that Honeywell leadership has chosen. It... — read more
Older workers
The joke, of course, is that they are laying off the older workers with prejudice, when it's the older workers who still have a sense of 'belonging' to the company they work for. The new hires have seen there parents laid off once or twice already... — read more
Why all hoopla on layoffs
I was let go in Q4 2015 - can someone help me out and let me know why all this traffic here as the site was quiet for several months? Is there another RIF coming? Thanks...
Forget layoffs
After several weeks of anxiety and agitation I decided to just forget the whole thing and start focusing on all my projects. I put in for the voluntary RIF since I am going to retire at the end of the year so have been disappointed in the lack of... — read more
Honeywell Contractors
What are your thoughts on contractors? There is a lot of grumbling about the topic, just wanted to see what a larger group of folks felt
Dave Cote using corporate jet to fly to locales with endangered animals, which he then kills...because it "relaxes" him!
And meanwhile, Mr. Cote hunts endangered animals and uses the corporate jet and an assistant whilst doing so! This is per the Humane Society. http://nypost.com/2016/07/05/animal-rights-group-slams-honeywell-ceos-hunting-trips/
Honeywell Layoffs 2017
I am creating a thread where we can speculate about potential layoffs that will take place in 2017. What are your thoughts?
Layoff several weeks behind schedule due to "organizational efficiency*
The layoff is running about 3 weeks behind schedule and continues to slip on a week by week basis. Affected names were due into Legal on 7/28 but the draft list was not ready as of 8/16. Apparently the cumbersome organization is hindering progress... — read more
HBT & SPS Re-Organization andl impacts
Any idea about redundancies (figures/location) behind this last re-organization still in progress ??
Why does anyone work here?!?!?
Seriously. If you can even half a-- your job you can find something better. Not even 3/4 a--. Just 1/2 a--. This place is nothing short of VIAL! You really think they are going to return your bonus when things get better? Just like they returned the... — read more
Kick 'em where it hurts
Stay. Stay as long as you can and as long as the emotional and insurmountable stress is not sending you over the edge. Honeywell wants us to leave voluntarily, attrition is its best friend right now. Well, stay, make them pay. These games they are... — read more
Annual Torrance Employee Pucnic and Employee Satusfaction Survey
i can't wait for the survey, Leadership will try very hard to get plus results and twist the results. Give the employees the picnic, then lay them off! What a treat!
Honeywell's New Vision Statement: Check Your Ambition at the Door
There are zero opportunities for growth. Leadership does not respect the employees enough to communicate regularly about the future of the company. Furloughs and Layoffs are announced via email with no warning and no explanation. Leadership actively... — read more
Time to unionize - lets go for Honeywell Gold
It is time to fight back. How do we unionize. We need site representatives and start coordinating our efforts across the US. If we can send a space craft to the outer edge of our solar system, then we can unite and fight back. Enough is enough.
Torrance Facility
Does anyone know how many workers were let go at Torrance?
Say Good-bye to your Christmas Holidays!!
Heard from a reliable source Hon HR is now considering eliminating the paid holiday week at the end of December for 2017 and beyond. A few more years of this and there will be no benefits left at the company.
Shameless
Dave Côte is absolutely ruthless. In 2013 he was a leader of corporate CEOs lobbying to cut social security benefits for retirees. That's right using Honeywell PAC employees' donations (which Honeywell intimidates band 4 employees and above to join)... — read more

Q3 Aero Town Hall - Bob Smith (Aero CTO): "Let them eat cake"
In a time where employers are falling over themselves to cater to their employees and attract top talent, Honeywell is apparently going in the other direction by treating their employees like crap. The aero leadership team is so out of touch with... — read more
