Not sure where this is coming from... Aero, "TM", "JE" or ... I've heard the rumor two ways. 1) On average, they want 2 days less vacation per person in Q4 vs last year. 2) They are having everyone enter their vacation plans and then... — read more 

As the company changes, some business are bound to become ares of secondary interest to the company leadership. What of the existing businesses could Honeywell be abandoning partially or totally in the next couple of years?

SPS reorg showed they can decimate and run based on your location. HBT rumors circulating about Hub vs Non Hub and RIFs based on if you are in a Hub or not. Everyone is scrambling Anyone know when this is coming down?

Today's email attempted to soft shoe the re-org by saying it is happening and managers remaining will basically emerge as indirect strategic "people" managers so just keep working, nothing to see, you'll hardly even notice it.

With these looming layoffs that Aerospace is famous for, where are you looking for a stable job?

Honeywell may not be the worst company, but it’s certainly the company that tumbled down the most in a short amount of time.How did we come to this position? Where did HON get it wrong?

What’s the point of constant reorgs and constant business consolidation? Not that I agree with the leadership, but if they have a certain vision of the company structure, why not try to achieve it in the shortest amount of time, instead of playing... — read more

There are a number of meetings happening right now in SIOT about consolidating sites, at least 2 that haven’t yet been announced. Does anyone know which sites and the time frame? Will direct and indirect labor both be affected?

How do you like working there?

For a company that run some complex businesses we sure give up on knowledgeable and talented people easily. What’s the leadership thinking? I get it that every corporation wants its labor to be as cheap as possible, but it’s not like we’re... — read more

Six Sigma, Lean, CMMI, PMP — what’s the next fad to waste time and money on?

I certainly can’t, but given that this is a big company with multiple businesses, I was wondering if there is still some part of the company there people still enjoy working for Honeywell?
