A previous thread talked about layoff rumors and that it would be starting in 3rd quarter of this year. We are in the 3rd quarter now. Any updated rumors, status, etc. Or was it just a joke?

Since this is a layoff page, can we get back to talking about layoffs? Anymore rumors or substance other than what was previously posted? Particularly interested in legacy RTN in So. Cal.

The longer you work at Raytheon, the less appreciated you are. In any other company, they would bend over backward to reward experience and great work, but not here. Here we are nothing but numbers. Once the number (pay) becomes too high for them, no... —  read more 

This is what you get when you have an executive willing to sell out to communists if it means they get a government contract. Do they actually believe this nonsense? No. They will do anything for a buck today even if it means a worse company and... —  read more 

Raytheon Technologies Corporation, the nation’s second-largest defense contractor, has launched an “anti-racism” program that promotes critical race theory, rejects the principle of “equality,” and instructs employees to “identify [their]... —  read more 

Productivity, quality, profitability: everything suffers from a lack of collaboration in this company. It may be my subjective impression, but never, over a long series of years, has collaboration between employees been worse. I don’t know why... —  read more

It used to mean something. When we were known for the quality of our products more than for the many layoffs that have become the norm lately. When age and experience that comes with it was an asset and not a detriment like it is today. Remember... —  read more 

So I guess the pist about layoffs at legacy RTN are false? There has been no information whatsoever, not even rumors. I guess the original poster just posted to start something.

Nearly all of my coworkers seem to be scared to death of layoffs all the time. As a result, I'm yet to hear somebody disagree with or stand up to their abusive manager or say no to an unreasonable request. Maybe I don't get it because I'm younger and... —  read more
