does anyone know how many assemblers got laid off? I'm just on my way into work, and not looking forward to see if I got canned or not

Thanks Anon, glad to hear Exhibit B was part of the package, lol! Funny how in the "Manager" section, only 2 managers out of more than 140 were laid off. What is that, 0.7% when the company needed at least 10%? Maybe the fat cats are on the next... — read more 

@ the canned one: I got the age and position paperwork as well. No worries (other than we don't have a job...) Good luck to all of us. It sucks, but there's nothing we can do but get back on our feet.

Names, ages, and lists of those who were or were not laid off provided to the public is confindential. L-3 CSW can expect potential law suits.

Prog/Analyst ages: 2 (61), 60, 42, 56, 58. Not really a pattern there, the ones "Not Selected" appear to more 50-60s and then you have some 30-40 year olds, they didn't go heavy on anyone age since for some reason it appears all of you are older... — read more

Can you give the ages of the programmer/analysts

Sorry, you are wrong "Suing L3". There is no personally identifiable information on any of this, I don't have, only HR does. This is just a list of layoffs by position. I assume they itemized it by age so they can show anyone that says "HEY, you laid... — read more 

By the time the whistle blowing and lawsuits subside, L3 will have a pretty good understanding of what being ass raped feels like. Don't worry, they'll get theirs, and it's coming!

I heard superior people will be cut but they wait till the end of there work week so they get 40hr and then tell them they don't need return... anyone have any details on that?

Hey CADMAN, did those ages jive up?

I don't know about Superior staff. I do know from experience that temps cost the company less since they aren't paying for your life insuranc, mdeical etc.. that's through your staffing company and they probably lowball you with the bare minimum... — read more

CAD/CAM ages were 63 and a 53 for total of 2 people "Selected". The "Not Selected" tally was 5. Are you verifying my statistics? I don't know this was in my folder, but since there are no SSNs or names on it, I still feel OK talking about it. This... — read more 

@The Canned One - Will you give the ages of the CAD/CAM designers?

Well, they got me. 8 years of college. 30 years working at some amazing places. a systems engineer who actually makes money for this place (as opposed to overhead positions). Susan is really in a bind. She couldn't do anything about lost bookings... — read more 

@Degreeinengineering you were laid off earlier than everyone because you obviously sucked at your job! Blame yourself before you blame others.

By my count with this statistics page that was in my folder, I only see a grand total of about 180 people. That's FAR less than 10%, but it's a good enough start for Susan Opp to tell Corporate. This is wave 1, people! Remember if you get laid off... — read more 

The current word today is that CSW Police are on site during tha mass layoffs. It is business, so old boys, croonies and good old boys are protected. Pat Muir in HR is such a moron in my opinion, just fell unto the job with no brains.

March 22nd I was escorted out, told nothing other than my position had been terminated. I had just gotten my raise and a perfect review the week before. I am 58 and make double what my peers. Scott Snarr in HR is a smooth face liar

I heard superior people will be cut but they wait till the end of there work week so they get 40hr and then tell them they don't need return... anyone have any details on that?

I have to go for now... I gotta make sure that the HR rep I met with didn't accidentally lose this in my folder by accident. Someone please tell me they have this information as well!!?? I'll be back later...

Someone will come get you and walk you to the nearest securty post where they will debrief you. It takes about 10 minutes tops.

All over 40 mhmm

I was pulled aside with a few others and told my position is being eliminated

Ages of the 8 Hardware Engineers were 41, 47, 58, 62, 82 (that has to be a typo), another 41 year old, 63, and the last says 76. I'm not sure that's for real.. 82 year old people at work?

so, are people being met at the door and taken somewhere, or at their desk/workstation?

I didn't get exhibit b

It's called "Exhibit B". Oh shit, I hope they didn't accidentally give it to me and I'm violating some sort of agreement. Can anyone else that got canned look in their folders and verify that you have a copy of "Exhibit B"? It's 12 pages thick... — read more 

@ The canned one. How would you have this information? Are they handing it out to people laid off, or were you privvy to some intel?

What are the ages of the 8 Hardware Engineers?

Funny that i was let go today and my paperwork says NOTHING about ages or numbers.

It comes in the paperwork they give you when you are laid off. It lists each job description (with level, age of employee and the selected or not selected totals). I was laid off today. I believe this information is given to the person laid off so it... — read more

There were over 130 manager's listed in the "Not Selected" column, and HR picked just 2!!!!!!! Unbelievable!

So in summary, Manufacturing got slammed the hardest with the Assemblers hit the worst, followed by the Technicians that would test the product and the Inspectors that would sign off the product as meeting spec.
