Annuity/pension or the lump!

Some good commentary on the Board. Some thoughts: ~Pension amount does not change with inflation. ~Medical insurance is important, but only up to 65 years of age. After Medicare kicks in, there are several Medigap programs to choose. ~Social... — read more

Ford's leadership is simply a disgrace

Bill Ford will face the shame of eliminating loyal employees based on age and the family's disgusting greed to save a few dollars by not paying pensions. Keep terminating, laying off, ' involuntary seperation ' all the employees that got the company... — read more

Peer Ranking

Just think if at the end of the year you could submit 3 names for peer evaluation. The good, bad and ugly. Of course Ford would have no idea how to process the data. Just like they never had an any clue what to do with Pulse Survey results. — read more

Keeping the poor performers because they are cheaper.

Ford is not unique in this regard, many other companies do it as well. However, I still haven't fully understood the logic behind it: it's obvious that the leadership doesn't think long-term at all, because where can this kind of management lead... — read more

Farley (and Ford) are gentrifying Ford Motor Company.

Let me explain. Gentrification is the process whereby the character of a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, and attracting new businesses, typically displacing current inhabitants in the process. "an area... — read more

Young employees beware

Watch closely how the company and you are treating (or talking about) older employees. You will be an older employee before you know it. Don't want behaviors to repeat, rethink how you view age.

Outrageous

So involuntary to many good folks who were let go in August vs voluntary to folks who are being termed low performers. Think about that.

Criticism stems from concern for the company

Instead of taking into consideration feedback from the employees, including any criticism which does not come from our wishes for the company to fail....... the management thinks our opinion is totally irrelevant. That tells me that they are the... — read more

No signs that things will get better

Maybe I'm too pessimistic, but I won't be surprised if the next year turns out to be much worse for Ford and the employees who will still be here. That's one of the reasons why I no longer think it would be so bad to get severance pay soon and leave... — read more

I hoped that 2022 would be much better

Perhaps I was too naive when I thought that 2022 would be a much better year for Ford than it turned out to be. I'm afraid of what awaits us next year, that is, if I manage to keep my job... Chances are that the next year will be even more... — read more

Blue oval shortage

Last time Ford was heading toward bankruptcy, Allen used the blue oval as collateral for a loan. Now that we can't seem to get a blue oval for our vehicles, what are we going to use? Recession is looming, bankruptcy is on the table.

Poor performers rewarded

Ford must offer vssp to all. Now that the cat is out of the bag on the ruse to offer (reward) poor performers only. What a terrible idea. Who came up with that?

VSSP MUST BE GIVEN TO ALL

Ford EV sales vs Tesla EV sales

We used to cancel vehicles that sold such low volumes. If we sold a Blue Cruise subscription with every one of the 41,236 EVs sold in 2022, the 2022 subscription revenue is less than $85,000. I’d love to see the spreadsheets someone is giving Farley... — read more 

The stock price continues its linear descent
