GM and Stellantis went with a voluntary package.
The Ford UAW legacy folks will get a 2 year bridge to reach their 30 year pension.
And Yet... for your salaried employees you take the forced firing route without any care or concern of the environment you create for those that get fired and for those left to wonder if they are next.
Not to mention the people who have given you almost 30 years of their lives - many of which were very profitable for you - you let them go before they could cross that finish line.
You don't care that for almost 30 years they were working and counting on that pension you promised. They continued to believe that you'd honor your family mantra and treat them with respect and if nothing else, you'd let them retire from Ford with dignity and the ability to enjoy their retirement.
Would it have ki-led you to add a year or two to get them to 30?
Shame on you. Ford is no longer a family except to those at the top who continue to cost $$$$ but cannot execute or see what amazing talent they are letting go because they think they are not the right talent. Many of whom could run circles around your new talent if you gave them a chance.
