If done right, they would staff at 150% of demand. That extra 50% is to focus on cross training, process improvement, and the unscheduled work that comes in unplanned. The next year you stay 150% staffed, but you need less people because of the... — read more

OTTAWA...EXEMPT from LEAN MANUFACTURING
Together, we the employees collaborate and decide how to run the show here in Ottawa. Yes, they tried and FAILED miserably. FREEDOM from LEAN!!!
Low backlog = Aero getting ready to be sold
Does anyone think the whole idea of getting the backlog down is for the new buyer of Aero?
Salary range comparison
How would you compare the salary range of managers and engineers? Is technical/IT managers salary range equivalent to a lead engineers salary. Same with senior manager and a principal engineer salary range? Band 4 is way too broad to me. It’s... — read more
Lump Sum Pension
Starting to irritate me why Honeywell keeps your lump sum pension payout for almost 3 months after you leave. Definitely not the right way to treat a LOYAL employee for over 30 years.
Does Honeywell demote people? I see lot of people saying they are principal program managers on their LinkedIn but they are actually lead p managers in the system.
Thank you, master.
Congratulations on surviving a pandemic and RIF's all year. Here's a bucket of popcorn for your trouble. Merry Christmas!
UOP review merged w Honeywell on Glassdoor

401K Match Announced!
Congratulations!! You are getting your 401k match.... :-)
Dear Honeywell...
Dear Honey Bucket…. In this HPD season, I can without remorse say that the effort I put into my job in 2020 was commensurate with the Merit increase that I received this year. I have silently watched as many better, brighter and more dedicated... — read more
Do you want to work from home forever?
Like remote? Do you want to work from home forever?
Here comes the lawsuits. Let’s RIF hourly employees in the last few months and now backfill with subcons. Another solid VP S. Hill can’t
Manage his headcount.... Love to hear how these employees being hired back in engines, Sky Harbor and Tempe aren’t illegal per the RIF procedures. I smell EEOC claims.

Dec 14 AERO RIF’s
Do anyone know if they will rif employees before the December 15 deadline for 401k match ?
Anyone else seeing the LinkedIn posts?
I've seen probably 5 posts already where Honeywell offered positions to new graduates, then delayed their start dates over and over. Now, I'm seeing the offers being withdrawn. How messed up is that to keep those kids in limbo for months, then lay... — read more
Honeywell FMT
I just got a job at FMT. Did they have any layoffs recently? How is overall career growth for mechanical engineers there? I read many were demoted but don’t know if it’s true
Watched two people get walked out.
Don’t know what happened but two in Clearwater got axed. Is this the start of another RIF? Honeywell in a fairy tale... “I sentence to to hang by the neck until you cheer up” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o0LUUFQ4MNM

? Are there 3 pay dates in December 2020? 4th, 18th, 25th? What is 1st pay date in January 2021 Thanks from a riffed employee
Didn’t see anything recently about Troy NY plant.
https://labor.ny.gov/app/warn/details.asp?id=9216 WARN notice given in September closing in April 2021. We should create a list of the closings. Honeywell likes to do things a little at a time so the news doesn’t pick it up.
Advice for novice HPD users.
For you, the employee who is new to HPD, or if you haven’t figured it out yet - I have the following advice. SPIN IT YOUR WAY. The odds are that your manager doesn’t know what you do and has no basis of comparison to your fellow workers. The object... — read more
You may now work OT for our benefit - you’re welcome.
Oh, the Phoenix aero lab. OT cut to zero unless TG gives the thumbs up. But wait! We still have commitments for the remainder of 2020 so let’s work together, hand in hand, synergistically and maybe you will be allowed to do some OT. Uh....no. I’m... — read more
