Severance packages are currently being offered to some employees at the L3 facility in Madison, MS. All temp employees that were part of the Army C12 program were dismissed today. Rumor is all temps will be dismissed then permanent employee layoffs will begin if enough volunteers don’t come forward during the short window to receive a severance package.

Brad hall is a sign to any work place that your company is going south quickly ... he has came into a mess Columbus Mississippi at the air base and made it even worse.
He keeps them under staffed and getting rid of people left and right.
Just 50I don't think so looks like layoffs are on the way doesn't sound like enough people
15 let go today and 35 accepted the package.
How many walked out in Madison today?
Rif in Madison today. Many walked out.
So was the quota filled by volunteers or will there be a random plucking of the flock to get to a magic number?
The Rubicon has been crossed.
C-12 contract loss, 2 words....Brad Hall
you know what I was thinking we have a classic here an ostrich with its head in sand
Here here L3 is at work what it does best feeling people's heads with bs if they could package it they would make millions
Was thinking the same about Mr. Madison failing to see the similarities. Looks like L3 is F’d up all the way to the top. Your points are spot on!
Okay mr. Madison you failed to see the similarities 1 chronic mismanagement like Waco to 2 inability to get new contract like Waco 3 too many people standing around like Waco 4 equals layoffs duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With all due respect, the purpose of Waco and Madison are two different animals.
Waco was a production facility, and Madison provides a service. Madison doesn't produce anything, Madison is only administrative for the service contracts at remote operating sites.
With the loss of the Army C-12 contract, there is no use for any temporary personnel associated with that contract. The last day of transition out was February 28th. This means that there isn't any more money coming in from that contract to pay temporary employees.
Everyone at Madison knew that layoffs were on the horizon with the loss of several key programs and in inability to attain new contracts that they were counting on winning.
If the voluntary separations are not enough to get to the staffing levels, then involuntary layoffs are immanent. Its s---s, but its part of government contracting business.
Part of the reason that Madison can't be competitive in contracting is that the overhead costs are too high, upper management salaries and bonuses are through the roof. You can't throw a rock without hitting a senior manager or director. There are mangers who don't manage anything or anyone. Madison has a director who has a manager, and they have a request for an analyst's, and no one knows what they do,
Yeah don't hold your breath they did the same thing and Waco and they still lay people off it's just a formality they're going to to get to the layoff
Hopefully enough will take the package
Crying.... Crying.... My tears keep falling... All night long... Your next Waco watch out
