The layoffs at CAMI were simply massive today. All GM IT was obliterated at CAMI. It was an obvious move to eliminate all those that were not physically in the GM innovation centers -- regardless of skill sets. Over 90% of the people were eliminated... — read more 

The Detroit free press published an image of an internal memo about the layoff. Upload the images on imgur. Be sure to keep anonymous and post the links here. Fight back against the b---s---. Why do corporations deserve to be treated as sacred cows?

Whatchya got?

Just wondering if layoffs are program specific. Since GM stopped making small cars, the teams working on those programs are most likely to be axed. Does that mean people from Trucks, SUVs, Crossover teams are safe?

Someone went to the press: https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/general-motors/2019/02/05/gm-layoffs-severance-pay/2778167002/

It appears that the way they did the layoffs, you cannot really single out age, race etc, but i think tactically they got rid of a lot of older folks (except those old cunning directors/executives). They did get rid of a whole bunches of senior folks... — read more 

Is AEC getting hit again? They already lost a lots of ppl in December.

This has been said before, but it's always good to have a reminder that this is NOT the end. Yes. Take a minute to feel it, as human you/we are human. Then think about next steps with a clearer mind as to what you need to do. Review and SIGN YOUR... — read more 

Howdy all. I was a GM IT employee who was picked up from HP in the 'lift and shift' six years ago. Prior to that, I worked on the GM account at EDS and then HP since 2006. I was in the VDOC. Some of you may know me. When I heard about the layoffs, I... — read more 

Any idea what the final count is up to now? Saw whole teams gutted today. This is ridiculous! Any idea how long this will continue? Not sure of how much more I can take of sitting and waiting for my name to possibly be called.

I was let go in the 2009 GM downsizing, then took a job with the Navy Department in DC. Four years later, in 2013, a guy with an anger issue came to work with a shotgun, walked through the building killing 12 people. A good friend was badly wounded... — read more 

Anyone sign a non-compete clause as part of getting severance? Did they bring up any reference to something you may have signed at hiring?

Any news on the AEC building or the labs?

Im in an active safety subgroup. 3 out 12 of us were laid off today. Active safety had cuts across the board. Our manager has still not let us know that we are safe and cuts are over. However, we have lost a total of 6 people( 3 contracts and 3... — read more 

If your let go I understand there's a severance. Paid 2 weeks for every year worked. Is that capped at 13 weeks? If so, BS!

Anyone know from environmental/ GECS team? How bad they got hit?! Is there more coming?

Not sure if layoffs.com provide us with value or not? How would this layoff look like without all of us constantly checking and updating? Are we better off? Not trolling, it's a honest question. I am really split, sometimes I like it and sometimes I... — read more

I know this is a wide topic. I’ve worked in IT and my dilemma is whether to apply at other automotive companies or is it a better decision to seek my fortunes in other businesses?

Everyone should tell their family, friends, etc. to boycott GM and never buy one of their vehicles again. Send them back into bankruptcy with no bailout! This is absurd, making over 10 billion dollars last year and laying people off! The greed has to... — read more 

I heard a rumor that managers are not allowed to give any input in the rescissions and are told minutes before the employee is let go. Can anyone else confirm?

Doesn't it seem some sort of physical consolidation is next? So fewer people, so much office capacity. Especially since GM considers China its future center for vehicle electrification (see slide 28). General Motors (GM) Investor Presentation -... — read more 

Temporary respite for tomorrow?

We could have helped you guys weed out the useless ones. We usually end up doing their work for them, so we know exactly who they are.

Why didn't GM offer voluntary layoffs thorough the company? I know at least two people who wanted the severance and to move on and yet they are still here (not sure if it'll stay like that, but for now, it seems so.) Why not offer people who want out... — read more 

Seen several people walked out today mostly from the back areas and 2nd and 3rd floors.

Has anybody been terminated in Areo? Heard it’s happening this week.

We had cuts yesterday but nothing so far today. We haven't gotten an official word that we are done, though, as some have - if I understand correctly. Now I'm worried that despite today being a quiet day for us, more might be coming our way before... — read more 

How hard did they get hit today?

Does anyone know if HR is already done with the layoffs in Roswell? I heard from some colleagues that apparently their done with this location but some teams haven’t hear anything from their managers. Other teams were told they are "clear" from their... — read more

Anyone over at engineering south at wtc have any news? What floor are they on? Have they concluded? Who was laid off on your teams at what level and out of how many?

How do they expect us to function like this for two full weeks??? Is their goal to get more of us to break and quit under pressure? Because I can't think of another reason that would explain GM dragging this out for full two weeks. This is... — read more
