Voya Replacement for 401k?
Looking for recommendations for post-retirement place to rollover the Honeywell 401k. The $20 per withdrawal fee doesn't make it seem like a friendly place to keep your money in retirement. Thanks.
UTC buying Rockwell
Saw they were in negotiations...that merger should only further cripple the HON Aero business. Opinions?
Honeywell is still liable during a hurricane if they say they are open and you must use vacation to get paid.
If you get hurt coming to work or going home go see an attorney and just ask. The email sent out is a form deterrent only.

RE "Heard PMT and HBT and SPS have big announcements this Friday September 8th"
Rumor is HBS is sold and it seems to have some credence this time. I don't know about the rest of HBT (I just heard HBS) or PMT and SPS. Rumor is HBS sale was to happen over labor day weekend, so Friday 9/8 announcement falls in line with with that... — read more

Torrance Laboratories to be Outsourced
Rumor is end of the quarter announcement will include outsourcing test labs to KBRwyle. Happened to HTSI recently. Maybe a blessing in disguise.
The AMT just dealt Plymouth a death blow today!
We were extremely understaffed to begin with. We just lost more very good folks today. The next move must certainly be a shutdown, despite hitting our being able to hit our numbers. We can't sustain all of these losses any more! We can't be proactive... — read more

Do we have final numbers on how many people were laid off across the company? With multiple locations I am seeing reported in other threads, it seems pretty brutal.
Glendale RIF
Glendale RIF is in effect. So far, unconfirmed #s are 6 volunteers and 5 involuntary. So far. Any news from CLW?
Why don't they take volunteers?
Heard from people who volunteered but we're told no. Why don't they let them go and let the people who want to keep a job, keep it. There doesn't seem to a rhyme or reason. Some old some young wanting out. Is there a legal gov. reason? Something... — read more

Awful weekend waiting..
pretty sure I will be rif'd tuesday. Terrible feeling. Even if I don't get tapped you can bet I will be gone the moment I get the chance. Rain is falling and it just seems appropriate.

Everyone should be prepared for RIFs: These commments are mostly obvious to all, maybe a few good ideas: Have a copy of your contact list (email address, phone numbers) for anyone you'll want to keep in contact with (so you can commiserate with them... — read more
