Feeling like I've been taken out with the trash. Engineer in deer Valley. Good luck to all.
Correction *team
Take the HOS Clearwater teem. The have destroyed whatever quality we had in space. Now it's a joke, but we have pretty boards to look at.
Re loss of Phoenix Engines Dev Shop - that decision shows how completely out of touch management (almost typed "leadership") is with what Aero needs to make the right things happen. Aside from straightforward R&D support, those guys saved many, many supplier screw up situations including going to suppliers - and not just Phoenix issues, either. Now it will take God knows how long to get things done what with our 90-120 day payment terms, etc., etc. Suppliers just beat down our doors to do business with us, NOT.
Phoenix Research and Development Shop was shut down today. Seven Top Notch machinist were let go.
Hmmm....I'm not seeing any Aerospace or Corporate executives on the lists. So we don't have too many of them?!
HOS organization was eliminated in Torrance? How can I sign my site up to do that?

So far. A manager and pc designer involuntary out of Redmond site. Manager over 20 years. Designer 15. S---s. More to come. However, I'm beginning to think they are the lucky ones.
Who were the 2 applications systems engineers let go in PHX or what group were they in?
