Thread regarding Sikorsky Aircraft layoffs

Too political too announce???

Doesn't it seem kinda strange that after the president and employees gave Lockheed Martin billions, with a b, of dollars in tax breaks and employee concessions that LM doesn't even have the decency to let us know our fate? All they can do is cry "poor" as they rake in another $60 billion in profit for the year. It's time for Hoffa and Trump to bring back our jobs from Turkey, Poland and all the other countries that the politicians gave our work away to!!! AMERICA FIRST!!!

To all the guys catching another b---s--- layoff...here is my list of companies that I check regularly for work. Some of the websites might take some google'ing but you'll find it. If not hit me up for the link. Good luck all!

WELCOME TO THE NEW SIKORSKY SERVICE CENTER WPB!!!

Services offered include:

4 attendants who speak english to fuel and service your aircraft.

1 attendant to clean your windshield and cabin (no english).

1 manager to tend to your every need (when not under the influence).

Open 9-5 Monday through Friday but closed weekends and holidays.

Food donation bins available for our low-paid non-union employees to help feed their families.

We can't promise you a drug-free workplace but, a least we try!

Don’t start feeling all warm and fuzzy because you didn’t get laid off this time. The layoff taking place now will be followed by a second wave of layoffs. Surfs up! Ride the wave.

"equal pay for equal work." When you voted for a two-tier wage system this is what you get, layoffs.

You will be replaced by contract employees.

Sikorsky in Troy, AL laid off 160 hourly employees in 2017. These Union employees are now being replaced by contract workers.

Lockheed Martin wants to replace the $45 an hour employee with a $18 an hour employee... one layoff at a time. When you sold out the future hourly employees with the two-tier pay scale, you inadvertently committed career suicide.

China, Turkey and Poland are all laughing at us as they build our Blackhawk helicopters and eat our lunch! When will we realize that it doesn't have to be this way? There is strength in numbers and that strength is all we have. We can either crawl in a hole and give up or, stand proudly and fight for our livelihoods. The choice is all ours.

Bad leadership is it's own punishment. Without an effective way to change the leadership environment, this was inevitable. If you only have temporary solutions to your subordinates' problems, then you have no solutions.

Glad I left, despite legitimately enjoying the job and the pay.

Hey Teamsters President Mr. Hoffa, Why does it seem that when we need out union the most, the Teamsters lay down on us? We pay our dues diligently so I think that we at least deserve some communications from you. Please let us know our fate and if Teamsters 1150 will survive.

Why all you whinny a--holes b--ching. Avaition is a game and this sh-- happens all the time. Get over it. It us nit HR that is not doing their job on the people who nevrr show up nd abuse the system. It is yoyr asdhole BROTHERHOID 1150. All they do is protect the f---ing dirt bags nd keep them employeed.

All Hands Union Meeting this Thursday!

No matter who you are or what kind of employee you are, you are a number on a roster, when your number comes up, it is unfortunate.

It’s Funny that Bart’s kids get to keep their jobs...nepotism makes me sick

Maybe Marilyn CEO should forward some of her 9+million dollar salary to help feed these families who are losing their jobs. How will she sleep at night or better yet explain to Almighty God that she turned her head at a time humanity was in need. Lockheed Martin is known for not caring (only a number) for the employees but care all for stock holders and the bottom line at the expense of the employee.

SURPRISE LOCKHEED IT'S YOUR FORGOTTEN EMPLOYEES THAT MAKE YOUR WALLET EXPLODE. TAKE THEM AWAY AND YOU HAVE NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If HR had the balls to fire all of the attendance abusers and FMLA abusers, the layoff count wouldn't be so high. It s---s that we will lose good people and many losers will remain employed.

West Palm Beach has always been treated like the bastard step-children by the Company and Local 1150. I have 30 years, have been through several surpluses and nothing has changed, Sikorsky and Local 1150 always protects the Stratford Mothership.

Bart’s b--ch? That could be almost anyone on first shift.

Bart'sbitch???..... is that you Roger?

Grow up people. Layoffs happen all the time. You are nothing but a bunch of overpaid little brats.

AVIATION JOB SEARCH???

JSfirm.com

A strike is looking like the only option at this point. Since we are losing our jobs, Lockheed Martin people will lose theris too!!! Poland and Turkey are safe without a strike. Bring back our jobs!!! AMERICA FIRST!!!!

Looks like the gravy train lost its biscuit wheels. I took the early retirement!!!

Sikorsky peeps’ fear not! The Teamsters have your back and The President , Donald Trump has your back too!

Why hasn’t Lockheed Martin made an official announcement about Sikorsky’s layoffs in West Palm Beach,FL? What’s the big secret?

Strike time??? Poland and Turkey are building over 300 of our Blackhawks!!! Those would save our jobs!!! Time to call President Trump to bring those jobs back so we don't have a layoff or strike in his own back yard!!!! Our plant is 20 minutes from Mar-A-Lago. A strike would bring those jobs back!!!! Lets have a union vote on it!!! We must stand up for what's right!!!

No need to layoff your hourly workforce Sikorsky/ Lockheed Martin. Just drug test your hourly employees... next problem.

All hands meeting in 2015 we were told production was going to be nothing during 2018-2019. Plenty of time to save some money. The company warned you this day would come.

So true sad days ahead

No new orders for Black Hawks, Connecticut has the 53K build and flight testing for the 53K is in Pax River. Florida got sold out son!

Time to sell the house and return that $50,000 truck you purchased last year...

It was announced on April 19th that your last day of employment is June 27, 2018. You will be escorted off the campus on that day.

Remember, at Lockheed Martin we are building a better tomorrow...

One layoff at a time.

Thought it was June 27

It was announced April 19,2018

at 6:00pm to 2nd shift. Looking like 32% of the hourly workers including 40 Flight Line Mechanics FAFO/DFC.

Sikorsky employees were just informed today of a massive lay off on June 22nd. Over 248 employees were notified today.Lockheed Martin just received massive tax breaks but that didn't stop them. Get the news out.
