Is it true that Honeywell HR and Aero managers fire people because they are looking for something better and it is a way for them to ensure their employees do not get easily hired?

Anyone noticed on FB elaborate vacations that ex’s take?
Pr control?
One things for certain, there are spiteful executives that can create erroneous information, anonymously...start investigations, and sit back and watch as livelihoods are ruined, and careers are terminated.
I guess no matter how much money you make as an adult, it will never compensate for being the kid no one wanted to be around.
They aren’t spying they are lonely. Consider stopping by and talking with them. Being paid to do awe full things to people tends to be isolating.
Managers spy on employees behind their back. Caught so many mangers looking at their employees to see what they are doing from the corner. Never take a job with this company. Horrible!
all true. meetups too!!
xxt- spot on!
Worse than just bad managers firing out of spite. This is a cultural problem that makes good managers do bad things.
Honeywell forces managers to rank people by arbitrary rules like “amount of overtime worked”. Often this requires putting good, or in the case of the manager referenced, who was well liked across all of aerospace— industry level great— people on a track to be fired. Simply telling a brilliant employee that they are in the outer L is enough to set this in action. The employee is angry at the obvious lie and the manager has no choice but to seek justification for an immoral act. dissonance.
I have seen it dozens of times over the last 30 years. I don’t think managers fire people out of spite.. I think they create those negative emotions because they have to fire someone.
This is cultural in honeywell and it cannot be fixed unless the company begins to experience real growth again. Without new products to drive that growth the company workforce must shrink to meet revenue goals.
So.. look around and ask if there are new products likely to drive growth. If you don’t see real potential from new products... make a decision: either be content with diminishing rewards and increasing work or find somewhere that is growing.
I made that decision recently and joined a company that is growing. I get paid for my all of my work. I can see the progress. No more BS. I am INFINITELY happier.
Now I’m on a mission to make this site the number one result in any google search about a honeywell job. Why..? Because those immoral acts left me angry and spiteful. Now I get to direct that toward the source instead of my employees. I expect it will last a while.
I know something... my manager in Clearwater reliability was sacked just so they can put us under PR control. He tried to get a technical position but HR refused and let him go. And another thing, my son was let go in a RIF in 2016 and when he re-applied to Glendale for a direct position over a 2 year period (while he worked contract at another co.) they never responded .
