Will there be a hybrid schedule for PDC to return to the office by March 1st?

I think town halls are just a waste of time and nothing more. I used to be interested in what would be said in the town hall, but now I know in advance that I will only hear empty phrases that I have heard many times before. What’s the point of town... — read more

Ford is screwed unless they reverse course.

Someone mentioned April is normal timing, but 2021 was in July, and 2020 was in May. Just trying to decide whether to delay retirement until the 2022 merit is implemented...

"It all comes down to the execution" (Bill Ford and Jim Farley in the first Global Town Hall meeting of this year) Yes, that's my concern precisely. When we go from Fairy Woke Land to the real world, Ford sucks. A good example of Ford's incompetence... — read more 

OSHA’s unnecessary rule rescinded.

After a series of discussions with Rivian, Ford's leadership indicated that it would be more beneficial to pursue its own path to develop electric vehicles rather than co-develop with Rivian. Ford's management is confident that it can execute on... — read more 

New V*cc update says Ford is still pursuing them despite Supreme Court decision. Isn’t this illegal? How can a company do that without even considering remote workers or people who are at wayyyyy less risk (18-50 yr olds that are healthy)? Why... — read more 

Look up how materials such as nickel, lithium and cobalt are mined! Slave and child labor. So while Ford is sending staff to DEI training, and putting out a "good world neighbor" message, that Mach-E you are driving was made possible through... — read more 

All the commits couldn't have violated this websites terms of service.

A report in the Detroit news says that 66% of vehicle buyers are not willing to pay for any kind of subscription services, and only 25% were willing to pay $5 or $10 per month for any service. Toyota buyers dropped the key fob service when they... — read more

Anyone else notice the new covid FAQ they posted and did not inform the employees that is was released? They revised a lot of it and the tone of the text sounds like HR is really ticked at the anti vaxxers.

And the stock is tanking on the news that we are propping up Q4 with the Rivian valuation, which has fallen to below IPO price. Ford is recalling about 200,000 cars in the U.S. to fix a problem that can stop the brake lights from turning off. The... — read more 

Are there retirees experiencing the same issues with via benifets and blue cross not being fully staffed? I have been on the phone at least 12 hours and gotten no where.

Know a few people that have left. The last couple claim Ford counter offered to try to keep them. They left anyway because they were sick of the cr-p. But I always heard Ford didn't counter. Maybe they aren't as into losing people as the mandate... — read more 

I’m glad that I loaded up on some of the stock back in 2020 when it got so low. I’m almost more than 4x my initial investment. People try and hate on Bill, Farley and even Biden but the market sure is doing better than ever. They must just be a bunch... — read more 

The unvaxed are supposed to get a 30 unpaid leave. Does anyone know what will happen to those who did not respond to the survey? Will they get a 30 day leave like the unvaxed or should the expect a different outcome?

Why not?

I hear this more and more often from people, that the logical progression of events is for Ford to be bought by another company. And I saw someone mention it here, too. I'm just wondering if you think that might be a good thing? I think it can only... — read more 

So, where do unvaccinated Ford employees stand now?

You can't teach people experience, it comes with age. If we lose any more people with the institutional know-how, we're screwed. Do they really think that an engineer fresh out of school can do as well as somebody who's been here for decades? Of... — read more

It’s great for me here, much better than the previous company I came from, but I’m a little worried about cuts, especially what’s going to happen next with vaccination-related cuts.

Will ford prosper?

This company does not care about employees. It might have at one time, but not anymore. Employees are now considered expendable and getting rid of them is used as a tool to boost short-term profitability and drive the share price up. Nobody on the... — read more 

Of course they did because they are guilty. They don’t care, though. It was cheaper to settle the lawsuit than do the right thing and let all the others who didn’t file work until full retirement... — read more

No Ford recalls in the past week. (or at least in the news) Quality is making a big comeback in 2022 for Ford. The + plan is working. This means less layoffs and bigger bonuses.

Salaried reduction target 30%!! This has been cascaded from above. Now some of that is open positions, but that will only account for 5-10%. This is going to be big, and impact every department.

There is a lot of euphoria and drama about the vaccination mandate. I have noticed that many forget that vaccination does not mean that one's job is safe. Vaccinated ones may not be first on the layoff list, but even those of us who are... — read more
