Easy money

When you don't care about the company you work for and the quality of work you're offering, you start making easy money. I used to try so hard and got screwed over again and again. Now I do only what I have to and even that I do half-assedly. They... — read more 

Purchased Services Layoff In PDC

My team just lost 2 colleagues. They were technically good and hard working people. Not acceptable at all. I am hearing 40% agency reduction targets too. Good Engineers are being targeted. The salaried folks in my team don’t work at all. Simply... — read more 

What happened?

There was a time when Ford had leaders that actually connected what needed to be done with the people being called on to do it. Don't know what happened. This is so true! I too keep wondering what happened in the meantime and why it changed so... — read more

Ford took $1000 cost out of Mach E

$1000 in cost reductions??? Omg. Either it was poorly designed or they cheapened it up. As a former engineer and program manager at Ford, that amount of cost reduction is not a good sign.

Big Miss on earnings

Well they missed on top and bottom lines. Back to 15 bucks they go. Farley needs to go back on CNBC with his P-m poms!!

TOWN HALLS

I think town halls are just a waste of time and nothing more. I used to be interested in what would be said in the town hall, but now I know in advance that I will only hear empty phrases that I have heard many times before. What’s the point of town... — read more

New year, same cr-p!

"It all comes down to the execution" (Bill Ford and Jim Farley in the first Global Town Hall meeting of this year) Yes, that's my concern precisely. When we go from Fairy Woke Land to the real world, Ford sucks. A good example of Ford's incompetence... — read more

Where is Ford in the electric vehicle space?

After a series of discussions with Rivian, Ford's leadership indicated that it would be more beneficial to pursue its own path to develop electric vehicles rather than co-develop with Rivian. Ford's management is confident that it can execute on... — read more 

Make it make sense

New V*cc update says Ford is still pursuing them despite Supreme Court decision. Isn’t this illegal? How can a company do that without even considering remote workers or people who are at wayyyyy less risk (18-50 yr olds that are healthy)? Why... — read more 

Mining for battery metals

Look up how materials such as nickel, lithium and cobalt are mined! Slave and child labor. So while Ford is sending staff to DEI training, and putting out a "good world neighbor" message, that Mach-E you are driving was made possible through... — read more

Sneaky HR

Anyone else notice the new covid FAQ they posted and did not inform the employees that is was released? They revised a lot of it and the tone of the text sounds like HR is really ticked at the anti vaxxers.

Another day, another Ford recall.

And the stock is tanking on the news that we are propping up Q4 with the Rivian valuation, which has fallen to below IPO price. Ford is recalling about 200,000 cars in the U.S. to fix a problem that can stop the brake lights from turning off. The... — read more

ford via benefits

Are there retirees experiencing the same issues with via benifets and blue cross not being fully staffed? I have been on the phone at least 12 hours and gotten no where.

Counter offers?!

Know a few people that have left. The last couple claim Ford counter offered to try to keep them. They left anyway because they were sick of the cr-p. But I always heard Ford didn't counter. Maybe they aren't as into losing people as the mandate... — read more 

Haven’t seen this in a long time

I’m glad that I loaded up on some of the stock back in 2020 when it got so low. I’m almost more than 4x my initial investment. People try and hate on Bill, Farley and even Biden but the market sure is doing better than ever. They must just be a bunch... — read more
