Several projects have been mysteriously cancelled due "budgetary" reasons without explanation over the past week. In addition, I heard from a number of groups that their LL5 and LL6s have been transferred to new groups without any direct reports. This has been going on in PD and RA for a number of months but there seems to have been an uptick over the past week.

Yes - it appears they've been let go just a few months after being placed in their new role. I just had one former LL6 call me and ask for an employment verification. The Ford approach to handling layoffs is much quieter and more excruciating than the GM approach, where they fire 10,000 people in the same week.
So those folks were quietly shuffled out the door?
When will this end? This has got to be the most drawn out "restructuring" in the history of Ford Motor Company!
Morale is gone!
Can confirm, already had a couple of folks get shuffled out quietly over the week here in the PDC and in other groups (Smart mobility, AV LLC, GoRide). PRP was last year, now the quiet headcount reductions begin.
