@1cw HR loves to spend the company’s money so it looks good to the parent company GD. It will be interesting to see how the new ceo manages the “cash cow” that Gulfstream has continually been. Don’t let the HR function determine the org needs or design or you will end up with unnecessary layers of “management” as well as cost.
Layering with more non-added value jobs! Rebranding the same losers, will give you the same results! There's plenty of dead wood to be cut from this tree, not left hanging around! Wastestream!
Reorganizing w more layers. Not sure on cuts
Engineering added another layer of Directors this year. We were told it was an HR (People Partner) directive to try and match GD org chart. More bloat, in fact before this we already had 1 too many layers, now we have 2 too many layers. Promotions everywhere, and not always the right person. I doubt they will fire all those positions they just unfortunately created and elected.
The aircraft and org chart doesn’t have to be optimized if there isn't strong business competition.
Right, so they can damage more planes and have no engineers to give repair instructions. How many reskins do they do a year now?
Usually starts off with engineering, senior engineers will be replaced with jr engineers for less pay. Admin and HR staff will also get hit. GD wants Gulfstream to churn out another 5% in overhead savings by EOY 2026.
What are the rumors? Layoffs in production or service center?
Hearing rumors too
They normally happen a week or two before thanksgiving.
