Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Badge Swipes is more important now

It's more important that you swipe your batch each day than making good quality vehicles.

That is all that my LL5 and LL6 are worrying about.

@kp
Told by who to display your badge?
Sounds ridiculous to me.

We are being told to wear our badges and display them or else

@cj Bill Ford’s agreement with the State of Michigan to get taxpayer dollars diverted from schools is to have 5,000 w2 employees in the train station. There’s nowhere near that.

It gives the LL6/LL5, something to do, since they don't know how to manage their people!

Well, in the past 5 years, they've spent Billions (with a B), on real estate and renovations. Not to mention wasting billions on the whole EV nonsense.

So, they dont want the buildings to be empty, they want butts in seats. Its part attrition and part control. I believe we are also being punished for the abismal survey results.

"The beatings will continue until moral improves"

They've lost control and RTO is the first step to try and get it back. Wont work.

I did hear through a conf. room wall that the message will be "we lost some people but the Ford plan is working and in full swing".

Its all just like the local news, heres your script, look at the camera when you say it and up talk so it sounds positive.

If I work in FC, do I get to use my volunteer time to go build trucks at the Dearborn truck plant down the street? That way I can ki-l 2 birds with 1 stone.

@av did anyone else notice how she is a "Global Director" but has nobody reporting to her? When she says "we studied this extensively", the "we" is literally just her.

Her dum--ss failed out of NYU and had to transfer to the University of San Diego to finish her degree (in "Business" btw). She has no technical skills whatsoever and she probably couldn't analyze the data in a 3rd grade word problem.

Why the executive leadership team trusts her "analysis" is beyond me

@av I am pretty sure they want us to work in collaborative work spaces all day. During one of the broadcasts, I swear they made the individual work station sound like an afterthought.

@av HR and Ford Land both report to Where’s Waldo. So you have two orgs that need to justify their jobs working together. HR makes up policies back to office to give Ford Land jobs something to do and vice versa.

I wish more people called this conflict of interest out. If they were separated you’d have one pushing back on other.

@am and they have the audacity to get that id--t woman from Ford Land in all the town halls to tell us how there is more than enough room for everybody

@ag if it were about productivity maybe they would actually have enough desks for everyone. My team literally got moved to a building with fewer desks. We were told to show up at the crack of dawn if you want two monitors.

It’s all excuses. This has nothing to do with “people not coming in at all.” Nor is it about collaboration. It’s not about productivity. It’s not about quality.

It’s about money. They want more and don’t care if it costs you your time and money.

Yep!
And Kumar apparently doesn't care if people leave and said there were some not coming in even a few days, so may as well punish everyone instead of those that are the problem
They are taking steps 10 yrs at least
