Took the job here out of desperation and now am coming to regret it since I am stuck in a place where I either get laid off eventually or I have to fabricate my resume. This is what happens I guess when you work with people who don't know how to use... — read more 

It just dawned on me. Could the hiring spree from 2012 to about 2017 all been a ploy? If you look at Linked In those announcing they've been laid off are mostly 20+ year employees and 10 or less year employees. Almost one for one. Could Ford have... — read more 

I posted this word because it was the only term that captures the recent actions of this company’s “leadership”. To say I’m disappointed in what Ford has become would be an understatement. I hope all of you that were let go end up doing very well. — read more 

The salaries are way below market, most people I know get no stocks/ equity. In addition, people are getting laid off every quarter. How is this going to attract talent?

Apparently that is the next time we might lose our jobs. I guess ill start applying non stop now and study for interviews instead of working on my work here. Its not like I am getting a high compensation here ( no stocks etc) and its not worth... — read more 

Could a GM and Ford merger be coming soon? If both are struggling with cost savings, they could merge and save more and put more resources on EVs.

Wake me up when they file for bankruptcy.

If Ford employees/operations are inefficient, which C level executive should be responsible for continuing to let that happen with no signs of improvement? A sincerely curious question.

Say I invent a new toilet brush that revolutionizes toilet sanitation the world over. Who owns it, Ford? How long to they own all my ideas after they throw me to the curb? How do I find out for sure?

The issue with Ford is the management. The CEO lacks the knowledge of how to cut costs without laying off talent needed bring the company into the future. He has ruined company morale, sends mixed messages concerning the companies over mission. I... — read more 

Ford, General Motors and lot of other companies cut dividend to zero at peak of pandemic uncertainty but Ford raised it significantly higher than competitors recently. Div yield for F is currently about 4.5%, which General Motors has about 1%. As we... — read more 

The good, the bad, and the ugly. Please share.

That's unpossible

I've admittedly been at Ford for less then a decade, but when I joined the company, in hindsight, things seemed largely functional. Program timeline was followed, decision makers were largely clear, things flowed. To me, things started going south... — read more 

GM and Stellantis went with a voluntary package. The Ford UAW legacy folks will get a 2 year bridge to reach their 30 year pension. And Yet... for your salaried employees you take the forced firing route without any care or concern of the... — read more 

"People who were affected are being provided with severance benefits and assistance in finding new opportunities." (spokesman TR Reid) https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2023/06/28/ford-confirms-salaried-worker-layoffs/70366557007/

I've heard from a source that there a lot of things taken into consideration in making the cuts and by far the biggest thing they considered was how well an employee performs on assessing, evaluating and implementing technical solutions to... — read more 

They have some of the most useless and technically incompetent people ive come across.

This week was pretty concerning; seems like a matter of time before I end up on the chopping block. Wish the economy was better so there would be better opportunities but seems like its worth it to get started earlier on trying to find a better... — read more 

Did the bracket department survive the cuts?

Why do they keep their jobs? If I sit through one more Return on Investment (ROI), I ask how do I control this? Upper management controls the budgets, decides what gets cut, project approval, etc. Advice I give to upper management, take your car... — read more 

This was my first time going through something like this ( even though I am thankful I wasn't affected) and I don't know how I will be able to have any real focus on the work I am doing here. Im sure most are like me and probably looking for an... — read more 

Did any LL5 and up included in layoff?

I guess they would sc--w there brother out of a dollar if they could.

It is disappointing that the company cut some very capable people, while those who were not nearly as skilled and engaged are still safe. What is the message to those who remain? Perhaps that Ford is interested in nothing but money.

Has anyone signed and turned in the paperwork yet for the lump sum and medical?

How many major rounds of cuts are we going to have in one year before it's enough?

My role was impacted and life@ford access went away in minutes before I could process the information. Any idea how I can get my final few months payslips?

Am I interpreted it wrong or it is what I thought. In the Ford CTP package it states that you are not eligible for reemployment with ford directly or through agency, except against law. Also you cannot accepted any assignment from other companies... — read more 

Shame on Ford! It seems that there are quite a few of those who are laid off, even though they have very little left until retirement?

Do you still get “walked out” or let go immediately if you submit a resignation and let them know you’re leaving for a competitor?

I've been following along with the news reports and haven't seen any executive departures. There were a few in the last months but anything this week?

Was wondering why Mr. mount everest jumped ship a month ago. Do you think Mr. triathlon knew this was coming ahead of time and saved himself?
