No WFH for you. Mr D. sees this as an opportunity for further head count reductions across the globe...
Meanwhile, all of us Honeywell workers and support staff involved with hands on manufacturing activities that cannot WFH give our full support to the folks complaining on this site.
Honeywell needs to allow unlimited (not just special circumstance) telecommuting during the Corona virus outbreak. Follow the lead of INTEL and others that are allowing unlimited telecommuting while the virus impact is still unknown !
Enjoy your Open seating
With everyone working onsite and each department hubbed into the same, single spot, it will be easy to wipe out whole groups and backfill them in the cheapest region possible. It might not be their plan, but it’s all upside as far as leadership is concerned.
WFH has been released as of this year as has the mandatory overtime. If they don't let you WFH and you get sick or die, probably comes with a nice civil suit settlement. Health and death over job loss from a place they can't get me hires to stay longer than 2 years. Not a loss.
WFH = HR policy violation that includes possible termination. Also, keep in mind that you cannot use your unlimited vacation while out with your Cononavirus.
Maybe WFH should mean Work From Hospital?
This will probably stop being an issue once honeywell is finished outsourcing 100% of its employees to Asia
Redmond just announced WFH for 2 weeks due to Local Health Dept guidance as they are the most impacted state now. Amazon, Microsoft and others are WFH. Seattle is very quiet now with few traffic.
@zta: It's likely "Crickets" or no replies because the answer is obvious to anyone that has worked at Honeywell for more than a week.
Crickets.
