Ford F150 aluminum a huge problem !!!!

Doubling Down on Aluminum

Reduced hours

Are agency positions still working at reduced hours?

Mobility's big partnership - with Ayro, a Clown Car Company!

I hope we aren't spending much money on this, it doesn't look like Ford or Ayro put out a press release but I saw it at futurecar. Their financials look like they need a partner much more than Ford should need anything they have.

What you put up with is what you end up with

VW Ford Partnerschaft

Imagery that comes to mind: A rabbit getting in bed with a python. I'll let you guess who the rabbit is in this relationship.

Stock up

Ford stock is almost at pre virus levels. Seems like investors have faith in the company

So much for the "SRD"....again

Remember the SRD was supposed to reduce unnecessary layers AND ridiculous reporting. Wasn't it supposed to be minimum 6 direct reports. How they used that to demote and get rid of people. Well, so much for that! Management is independently... — read more 

This shouldn't be legal

How is it even legal to lay people off just a few years shy of retirement? That screams age discrimination and yet Ford keeps doing it. Are they so confident that nobody will bother to sue them so they just keep doing the same rotten thing over and... — read more

Must take action by June 30

To make Wall Street think we are not going to continue losing $5 Billion per quarter, there will have to be major cuts announced by the end of June. Programs, projects and people will have to go, as what is happening is unsustainable. Sad.
