Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Well that was pretty quiet....

Realtor will need to get the butane smell out of the basement of Vorn Lane location.

His ID is now showing inactive so I guess he is done. Looks like the leadership wants to sweep this under the rug.

zuw - got your dance shoes on dancing thru la-la land? The FLV ship has sailed. Realtor was observed on Vorn Lane.

I do not see anything to suggest FLV is currently not part of Ford leadership. If someone is on an official Ford leave, yes it will appear in the internal Ford directories/outlook that he is not with the company but that does not mean anything. Until Ford communications says otherwise with an official press release, FLV is still with the company and will retake head of Ford Next upon his return to work.

Sorry Billy. Ford is selling vehicles not phones. The Fords and BODs have completely lost their minds if they think these tech clowns will work out. D-mb

FLV is no longer listed as a Ford executive, he’s been terminated.
Hopefully the entire Ford Next group follows him out the door. That improves our bonus calculation by $3 billion.

The ceo of canopy can stop expecting to be promoted to FLV’s job, and that they should be terminated for under performance due to lack of delivery of any hope of profitable revenue.

The fact that Stern and Field worked together at Apple is underwhelming. There is zero chance that they can turn Ford into Apple.

If the plan is for Stern to "build a world-class team to create and market innovative customer experiences by integrating hardware, software and services across Ford Blue, Model e and Ford Pro,” he needs to start by firing the entire Ford Next team, which has cost Ford over $10 BILLION over the past few years, with NOTHING to show for it.

If he starts there, we will know he is truly a business leader.

The article also confirms to the people full of hate here that FLV is indeed still part of Ford leadership and will be returning after a much needed rest and relaxation period.

Good news for the company's future.

FLV is one of many poor decisions made by Bill. Similar to Doug F, A Lo, J Park , Jim F and so many many many others, they are all fakes with bloated resumes and profitable results. Every program is delayed, everyone knows plenty will be cancelled. The elimination of qualified, experienced people is clearly being felt. No mystery more layoffs are coming, my guess is end of September so Lawler can spin his B$. Truby is desperate for some positive story, it's not happening. The ' road trip ' was ridiculed, plenty of eye-rolls over the frunk when people were clearly concerned over the poor charging and lack of reliability. If the greed of the Ford family kicks in they will realize it's time to TERMINATE FLV AND THE REST OF THE FRAUDS that are destroying this company.

Plus = he is a much more likable human being
Minus = Ford is still chasing fantasy land objectives and his background is music and marketing.

• Build out the business tied to Ford’s BlueCruise hands-free highway driving system and productivity and safety/security services, including those from the Ford ProIntelligence business
• Imagine and deliver exciting new high-value services, and
• Lead services marketing, certain out-of-vehicle customer experiences and Ford Next.
