Hayes IAM All Employee Meeting on 16-Sept

3hr end-of-day call for his entire org plus the legal AVP and HR Principal that are usually "optional" invitees. There's already a 1hr Town Hall on 26-Aug, and three weeks notice for the invitation seems like an awfully long warning for a "you're all fired" meeting. Anybody have any real information?


Layoffs are coming

I’m hearing that major cuts may be coming in the next couple of weeks, and it looks like VPs are being asked to provide numbers from each team. Please be cautious and consider exploring other opportunities as a backup. Unfortunately, these could be especially challenging times for anyone who has recently been on a PIP.


Is the L3Harris scandal about to hit 3M and Bill Brown?

Some interesting chatter is coming out of Florida this week.

Word on the street is that the independent investigation into ousted L3Harris CEO Chris Kubasik isn’t just looking at his recent behavior. Apparently, investigators are digging into old HR complaints from 2021-2022 to see who else knew what was going on.

As most of you know, 3M CEO Bill Brown was the Chairman of L3Harris back then and engineered the merger with Kubasik. The rumor going around internal circles is that some senior executives are worried paper trails or emails might surface showing that Brown was warned about Kubasik's conduct years ago.

Not good for 3M if true. I hope it's not true.


Are fall layoffs coming?

Are there any rumors of fall layoffs after open enrollment? I'm not hearing the usual chatter but it seems to be a yearly event. It also seems to have been unusually long since the round. My mgr asked about my general flight risk in a meeting stating they were assessing the group plans. Is that a normal conversation? Our group is definitely not hiring. If anything it's shifting to more offshore.
