After working at Ford, I thought since it would make sense to buy one after my career pivot. Never get high off your own supply, I guess. Just sold my ford truck for 14 grand, I bought it for 32 grand two years ago when the truck market was god... — read more

Yesterday's HUB Announcement
Does anyone who's in PDC feel like we just got messed over with yesterday's announcement? Looking at the pictures we become a parking lot? No trust in management. Do as I say, not as I do.
Why Aren’t the Executives Using the Billion Dollar Train Station for the New WHQ??
Oh… That’s right… no one in their right mind wants to drive to Detroit, let alone work in that dangerous area..
Joke of a leadership
Can you even picture a leadership team less inspiring than the bunch we’re stuck with? Because I can’t. Every time they open their mouths, morale drops another inch.

What Ford Leadership must do promptly to save the Ford Motor Company. And it has nothing to do with hiring loser Dave Calhoun.
Ford Motor Company needs to immediately stop offering any implied Warranties on all new Ford vehicles. Start offering all new Ford built vehicles for sale As-Is Where-Is. Ford Leadership needs to wake up and smell the coffee and finally admit that... — read more

Fights breaking out at Ford over work stations
I've heard of several fights breaking out over workstations since there are not enough at most buildings. Tempers are flying and surely Farley is loving the chaos to get people to quit so not to pay severance and unemployment.
Ford recalls nearly 2 million vehicles for rear-view camera issue. Enough with CEO Farley. It's time to bring in Dave Calhoun.
Dave Calhoun will put Ford up on blocks for ever. Just like he did at Boeing. Ford has issued another recall. The Michigan carmaker recalled 1.9 million vehicles because rear-view cameras could display inverted, distorted, or blank images... — read more

The worst place I've worked

Return to Office. Final Written Warning
Did anyone else get a final written warning after taking maternity leave, being sick, or vacation this summer? Or even after being told to stay away because there were no desks? A new low for Ford.
What’s the point?
They want collaboration yet it’s impossible to find desks together (if at all) or a conference room. Everyone is just on top of each other. It’s beyond frustrating that we have to spend this much effort just to find a place to work. Lots of... — read more

2026 Ford F150 Lightning EV - STILL LOOKS THE SAME AFTER 5 YEARS
I think Ford will discontinue the F150 Lightning after 2026. They have not done anything to make this EV pickup truck better since it was introduced in May 2021. No wonder Ford can't sell it and no one want to buy it. The end of the road for Ford... — read more
