The ALT's been covering up the China R&O issues for year, separate from this self disclosure. China's CAAC doesn't believe Aero can solve those problems so I've heard. It's amusing since China steals everyone's technology.
I bet the "leak" was due to a sales presentation or something similar. Sales and procurement are not subject to engineering requirements. It was probably an engineer that reported it.
I wish the recent ethics thread was sticky, as this would be a good addition. There really needs to be an easy-to-access master list of these ethical transgressions. Too much too keep in my head.
The Feds need to check Ariba. All sorts of ITAR violations happening with that system.
This is a good deal considering that ITAR system are managed from outside US.
A token manager or director will be fired for this, but not the VP responsible for it. That person is a protected gender, protected race and probably is impossible to fire for anything. And she knows it. Talk about real privilege.
Ah yes “one of the most ethical companies”
WTH!! What about the HW Code Of Business Conduct?! And weren't the brass touting their horns a few weeks ago about winning some kind of "ethics" award?! As the famous line in the movie goes; "I don't think that word means what you think it means."
Why was previous post on this deleted? Is this site turning into Glassdoor???????
From one of the news post, the disclosure occurred thru DexCenter. If I remember correctly, the sender has the responsibility to declare the ECCN classification and DexCenter determines based upon location and citizenship if the receiver can legally have the declared info. So either the sender misclassified or the receiver misstated their credentials or the info was misclassified in AeroPDM.
The correct method is to have the receiver/requesting person pull the data directly from AeroPDM.
Count Dairy Dracula: “Everything is fine minions, we just got caught for an unethical stuff, no biggie, keep working 80 hrs a week”
There was time when selling secretes was treason punishable by death or imprisonment. Amazing that 13 million will forgive treason.
Madd Dog tried to downplay it in the town hall today. He believes that nothing critical benefitted China's military capabilities. He doesn't have a clue about what actually got out. Pathetic.
Honeyhell was faced with two choices:
- Keep the coverup going and risk a whistleblower/leak to authorities.
- Self disclose and pay a pittance of a fine.
This fine should come directly from Dairyarse's compensation.
Yes, looks like this site deleted another post exposing HW's hypocrisy in Core Values and cozying up to the ChiComs by divulging military secrets.
Self disclosure. Nothing to hide. $13mil ain't nuthin' to Honeyhell. Just a few headcounts will cover that up
