How badly do you want out?
Would you leave even if it meant significantly lower pay? Personally, I'm looking for a way out, but not at any cost. However, a coworker is leaving and he told me he is taking a nearly 30 percent pay cut just to get out of here. Do people... — read more
Honeywell Anniston
To Anniston employees looking here: Based on our recent town hall, it looks like we still have a fighting chance. A decision on Anniston hasn't been made yet, so the ball is on our court. What are we going to do? Let's quit whining about leadership... — read more
Looking at exit strategies: What ones include severance pay?
30 year employee near retirement, and ready to get out. What circumstances include a severance payout? Layoff? PIP? Missed yearly goals? Also, what are the rules for using banked illness days (that they won't pay you for when you leave). In... — read more
Is this true?
There are two plans. One is to demote individual contributor band 4's to band 3's, reducing the MIP bonus dollars. The other is to prepare for the coming recession (the one that Wall Street has been saying for the past 2 years is imminent). That one... — read more
Houston R&O being shuttered
The aircraft wheel and brake shop was informed this week that they are being closed down by March of 2020 if not sooner. Some good people there!
RIM plan
Anyone willing to share information about the planned reduction in management? Is it still just being considered or already planned? I kind of think they are targeting the wrong layer for cost reduction. How about targeting all the band 4's that... — read more
Mid year appraisals & Darius Adamczyk's Honeywell
Just had my mid-year review. Darius has found a way to make sure Honeywell workers perform at maximum effort. I think my boss is required to write hard hitting reviews that feature small things magnified 10x. My overall performance (good) was not... — read more
Check your W2 and Earnings Statement (For Deliberate ERRORS)
Team, Look for your earnings statement for deliberate misses. If you were supposed to earn (say) $150K, then Honeywell has paid only $130K. It is the amount published on your W2 and Earnings Statement. So, basically they have been undercutting you... — read more
Increased Security at Sky Harbor
Anyone know why there is an increased security presence at Sky Harbor? Email came out Monday night stating that only specific turnstiles can be used to enter/exit the facility. Today there are security guards at every parking lot entrance and guards... — read more
This will not work out
If Honeywell keeps laying off experienced employees and bringing in barely out of school replacements, something is going to break really soon. I'm not even blaming the newcomers - some of them are actually trying, but they receive barely any... — read more

Aero Wide Management Layoffs
Rumors reveal up to 50% layoffs in Aero Engineering at all sites. Timing is post mid-year reviews Aug 9th. Thoughts?
Possible sanctions?

Do they have a list of locations that are set for closure?
Or are they deciding in the process? If this was a normal company I think the answer to this question would be obvious, but we’re not a normal company, are we? Is there any method in which we can determine what locations have the greatest potential... — read more

What site beside Anniston? Toronto? South Bend to break union?
i cant stand that darius post being on top. time for a new topic. Toronto team is convinced that the site is done. no work in site. Morale is beyond low. New designs being done in asia. We are just waiting for a severance package.

New TV commercial
Just saw it on NBCSP, "We make a-lot of great things but we're making the future" what a joke, a future for whom?
The "minus 46"
The "minus 46" is the score for Aero DV survey results on a possible range of -100 to +100. Plus 100 means you would highly recommend working here to a friend. Someone already posted the e-mail that came with the result as a comment. I think this... — read more

Glendale/DV/ALBQ AME - Another one bites the dust
Over the last 5 years there there have been 7 AME leaders that are no longer with honeywell (quitting or terminated).. the common denominator is their misguided markromanaging boss, MB. Shame to see one of the better ones go this week.

Unlimited Vacation
What is the real story on unlimited Vacation now? Are we still held, in an unwritten way, to the old policy (2 weeks, 3 weeks @ 5 years and/or B4, etc.)? If so, what are the consequences of going beyond that a couple days?
More before December 15
Across HBS globally I heard 300 by end of Q2 (June 28) - so they may be almost done for this go-round. I am sure there will be some before 401k match day December 15th
Layoffs unlike as we can’t fill the work we have.
Work more hours (eei) is code for “we aren’t able to hire to fill our demand. The “do more with less” mantra echoed in honeywell for years. By which was meant do more hours work with less actual pay. Sound familiar principals who’s work isn’t worth a... — read more
