This is what's wrong people. Idiots are in charge.
This is a retraction from the original post. The purpose was just to point out that being an RF Engineer at Honeywell doesn't mean much anymore. It is more difficult than other engineering disciplines but as far as this company is concerned you're just another resource.
After suggesting to an Director once that the project should be planned around the availability of certain RF Engineers with the the right experience, he disagreed and replied: "no, we'll find the resource(s) once the project is planned" He paused and added-- "I didn't say we get a good RF Engineer."
That kind of says it all.

The OP is telling you All products. HW has been closing and consolidating the qualification groups. Now there are not enough Engineers and facilities to meet the demand,
Which business unit's RF products are you referring to?
