My first role out of college, worked across two SBGs (both not Aero) and while I’ve interned for other F100 type of companies I’m always curious how other companies are compared to here. I can see all the posts from you here and I agree with most... — read more

It might help to get your (unauthorized) public profile deleted from MyLife.com, Spokeo, White Pages, BeenVerified, etc. That is what I will be doing this week. I googled myself and right up top of the search returns was the MyLife headline with... — read more 

Looks like the whole of Phoenix employees were told to reapply their positions and almost everyone now changed roles and LOB in order to keep their jobs. What's leadership and HR intent ?

I have come across LinkedIn posts of 5 very competent leaders (VPs and Directors in different functions) that had left Honeywell for better opportunities in the month of April only (don’t feel right to name them). I don’t think that they had any... — read more 

Gimmick . Can’t deliver product so smoke and mirrors for Q2.

When people say there are plenty of job openings they're not wrong. I managed to find dozens of good ones in the last couple of months I've been looking. Sadly, none of them want those of us who are in my age bracket (mid-to-late 50s.) Out of the... — read more 

I was on vacay with the fam and looked up the Clearwater site as I hear so much about it. What has happened to our sites? This one has knee high weeds all around, cracked parking lot, over grown bushes, etc.. There is a little drainage ditch covered... — read more 

Any word on how the Indian engineering and test folks are doing?

At my 1-1 my manager said the spike in cases in India has caused another lockdown and halted return to work efforts. They even mentioned a super viral strain. I searched news reports for Bangalore and indeed they have had a 'super spreader' strain... — read more 

Google Translate. That's right. Our HUGE mega corporation cannot hire interpreters to train the people that are taking over American jobs. F*CKING PATHETIC.

Not for other people, of course, but for myself. I've never thought there'd be a point in my life where I'd be praying to be laid off but here I am. I don't even have anything new lined up, I just want out. I'd quit but I can't really afford it, so I... — read more 

After years of watching HON treat its employees with complete disdain, I have lost all interest in trying hard and doing my best for the company. Now I'm doing the bare minimum and spending any time I have left to search for a new job. That's as much... — read more 

Thanks to their desire to make a 1% (or thereabouts) HIPAC donation, donors willfully disclose their salaries here: https://www.opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/honeywell-international/C00096156/donors/2020

Someone asked if there were any changes in the severance pay policy recently, but there was no answer. That interests me as well, have there been any changes already, or will there be changes in the severance policy before the cuts? Are there any... — read more

I keep hearing people offer "advice" to move on from the entire industry and I have to ask, where exactly are we supposed to go? Some of us have very specific skill sets that are invaluable in our field but useless anywhere else. Are you suggesting I... — read more 

Q2 will see large scale RIF to meet targets.

Big time rumors non–core businesses are actively being sold. If your not in the DA model you are not going to be around for long.

I totally agree with someone who said that decision makers don’t have a clue what work any of us do. Sometimes it seems to me that they are not at all aware of what the objections of ordinary employees are and how things look from our point of view... — read more 

Now that the Q1 results are known, how large do you think will be the volume of layoffs that follow? It seems to me that it will be the most critical for the people in Aerospace

Unless you're a yes–man you won't get ahead here. Disagreeing with anybody in the management even if you're right will only bring you grief and push your name closer to being added to the next list of cuts. New ideas are not only not welcomed, but... — read more 

Seems like Mexico can’t get their sh-t together as fast as Darius would like!

Anyone else get a phone call from their manager about that survey? Are they offering a bonus to managers with high participation? I wanted to say “walk down the hall rather than call”... oh wait he is at home and I am at work.

I wonder how many that transferred to Aero Olathe will leave once their contract has ended.

We all know it’s coming sooner or later. What will Honeywell do about making its employees return back to the office ? Will it be flexible or forced ? Vaccinated or not vaccinated? We have all shifted our lives to work remote and we can... — read more 

I wonder if furloughs are around the corner? I don’t see the contractors they just brought back, I wonder if they were let go? Keep those daily commits rolling !
