John Deere is set to hire over 400 new employees and recall more than 275 previously laid-off workers. The company is bringing back nearly all employees who were on layoff in Waterloo and the Quad Cities. Additional hiring opportunities are available at plants in Iowa, Illinois, and Kansas. This expansion aims to meet customer demand and prepare for future needs. The move signals a significant shift after recent rounds of job cuts.
