I'm hoping Ford's won't be as extreme as GM since we are not fully owned by investors.

Ford's layoffs will be more subtle

I doubt it will be the same. GM is taking all the heat for the auto sector. Ford knows this and is trying to do it in a more subtle way. Even if they lay off the same number of people, it will most likely be through various rounds of layoffs instead... — read more

Cuts are coming

Hope I’m way off here but I think there’s a lot of pain to come for employees of this company. Every article that I’ve read over the last few months suggests to me that Ford is embarking on a fundamental change of how it does business. The language... — read more

For what it's worth

Not sure how much our CEO can be trusted right now, especially in regards to layoffs being planned by Ford, but he seems to be adamant about layoffs not eclipsing those of GM. Note that he is not saying there will be no layoffs, mid you... — read more

How come I'm only now hearing about this?

I was so close, I am 55 and have nine years with Ford. Funnily enough, I used to work for GM as well once upon a time. While General Motors offered a buyout and now faces layoffs to trim its white-collar ranks, Ford quietly presented salaried... — read more

Plant Closures & Job Cuts

Personally, I expect 2019 to be an awful year when the company starts to reveal its plans for ‘restructuring’ and then start to implement those plans by way forced and voluntary redundancies. We have openly been told by the company that it needs to... — read more

For those of us who have worked there our entire lives!

The announcement was not clear and poorly timed. They should have waited until they were ready. Now we have to worry daily and walk on egg shells until we know if we as individuals are being put out on the streets. HOLIDAYS are coming and I'm sure... — read more
