The big ones? Is it publicly available? Or no. I’m new to this

Everybody listen your superiors and enable their behaviors to the extreme. Gas them up and start agreeing without any friction. Let’s do it for 3 weeks straight. I have an idea. Over exaggerate their genius work. Trust me. This will be hilarious — read more 

Many millions really. I know people think we’re on the precipice of this huge change in the way everything works. I get it - Ford doesn’t want to be left behind. But, I haven’t seen anything that leads me to believe this is going to end well. If... — read more 

Except for the extra work and survivor's guilt and worsened mental health due to stress and strained morale and shattered trust in leadership and...you get the point.

Like actually stupid. I’m younger than most of you all, but I just have to get this off my chest. It just feels like everyone is full of cynicism and missing logic. I feel like I am walking around people that are just pretending to know what they are... — read more 

Did anyone else who was laid off notice anything in their severance package about rehire eligibility? Mine states that I’m permanently ineligible to work for Ford again—even as a contractor. That feels extreme, especially since my layoff wasn’t... — read more 

Ended up getting laid off. It was mentioned to return all computers and monitors. Do they really track the monitors and do they really care?

Last time I checked, over 8k under MJ Now only around 7k, seems more than 350

If the bottom 50% are cut and the top 50% are kept across all levels but done very fairly, the company can actually function well. The problem is they will remove the good ones and start hiring again as the remaining ones (friends, family, yes-men... — read more 

Now that CVS had its turn what about us in ADAS and Latitude AI under SO!?

DF was let go for wasting $10B on FNV4, correct?

It would be naive to think the cuts end here.

How are you supposed to "get back out there" and search for a new job when you feel like an abject failure?

It takes a long time to build a reputation. Tragic .

They won't stop until they offshore every single position they can offshore. If you think you're safe and you worked from home at any point, think again. This is the goal.

Used to think Ford was building cars—turns out we were just vibe coding in Figma and naming commits “final_final2_thisOneFixesIt”. The CVS org? It wasn’t Connected Vehicle Software. It was Confused Vibes and Slack. You’d spend half your sprint... — read more 

Can we conclude that all emails have gone out by now? That people who are affected know it by now?

I got the privacy consent notice with single Accept button this morning but no email yet, I checked with 2 other teammates they didn't get anything like that, does it mean am I on the chopping block? I am under SO org.

Did the gang survive?

Will the Cdn govt be offering MAID for those who have been laid off? I'm considering all of my options and that is one of the many on the table

I'm sitting here hoping to receive that email and nothing. Why don't they offer VBOs before layoffs is beyond me.

Our supervisor just confirmed that this isn't the end. This isn't even the start of the end. It's just the beginning. I fear for anyone with a mortgage - it's going to be bad. Job market is ABYSMAL and is flooded with international students willing... — read more 

For those who got canned (like me), what packages did you receive? I was with Ford for 7 years and got very little. Not enough to pay for my mortgage and car lease for the next year :(

I saved 20% or more on my car insurance by switching to Geico.

I've been jumping from one thread to another, trying to piece things together. Can we post location and number of people hit here, if you don't feel comfortable with sharing anything else?

Why are people mentioning a second round in June/July? How would that make sense—hitting the same teams again? Why not just do it all at once and start rebuilding morale?

If you make it until noon today you are safe...until the next round mid-June. Best of luck friends.

I was part of the layoffs yesterday and I am really confused. I always received good reviews and one of the team’s most experienced engineers. Is anyone familiar with how these layoffs were considered? I cant help but feel it’s personal :( One... — read more 

No one is safe until EOD Wednesday. This is going to be intense. Good luck everyone. Looks like the LL5 who mentioned it will only be all clear after lunch on Wednesday was telling the truth. Everyone is stressed.
