How did you get your inconsistent rating?
Let’s all compare. Heard many of my colleagues got an inconsistent in performance even if they were remotely involved with FNV4. I got told I don’t respond enough on Teams so my collaboration is an inconsistent. Unreal.
Badge, Login, and mouse wiggle checks
Will sell more EVs, make Ford profitable and reverse our record number of recalls. So badge checks are the first check, followed by logins, then mouse inactivity. Brought to you by our AI Data Analysts and our new Palo Alto designed VPN Have a nice... — read more
As I was logging off today my computer all of a sudden did a quick download.
There was no restart needed and no advanced warning of a download to be done as usual so that I could schedule it for another time. Got 2 inconsistent on my review last week. Is this a sign that I get let go tomorrow?
Starting tomorrow
Just be ready to finally make peace with reality
Pulled Over Driving to Work
I was rushing to get to work before 7am so I can find a parking spot and desk. it’s a waste of money and time by coming in to the office
Layoffs just in small batches?
Until when? Just so we can stay extra stressed on a daily basis forever?
4am: found parking spot, badged in, claimed a desk.
Taking a nap in the car for a couple hours.
badging out
at the FN1 building will there be badging out macjines. As of right now they do not. Just curious if the will be implementing them due to the fact that people will leave
Bare minimum starts tomorrow
No more flexibility with my mornings. No more working through lunch. No more working weekends and certainly no more hopping on my computer in the evenings. You’ll see me from 8-5 4x a week not a minute more. I used to give Ford more time than I... — read more
Happy Labor Day and so you all in the office tomorrow!
4 day RTO to turn the company around!
Are layoffs finally going to begin this week?
Why are they dragging out this so long? Get it over with already.
This is why Ford buildings are so bland.
It's very, very intentional. https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/1mz0q4u/lack_of_color_and_fun_changes_the_brains/
So now recall posts are getting deleted
What are they trying to hide??
Recalls
You know what's funny? When items in a grocery store get recalled, people talk about it, they don't buy it again, avoid the brand like the plague. When Ford issues a recall notice, what the fu-k do people think?
Does this make me a bad person?
I'm happy that the latest layoffs are in South Africa and not here. It's good to hear somebody else is getting hit for a change.
Ford Land Follies RTO
Ford Land RTO is coming next week yay and already the tone amongst employees is becoming heated. Order your magnetic desk name plate, be sure to take it with you daily because of the center of gravity nonsense. One of my co-workers in Mexico told me... — read more
I want to leave Ford
What’s been your experience with the job search lately? I’ve been looking for months, and honestly, I’m open to creative ideas and stepping well outside my comfort zone. I won’t go into praising or bashing Ford. I’m just personally burned out after... — read more
Mid-Year Assessments End Today
How did they go?
Intern Making a Decision
I did an internship this past summer and was extended an offer in PD (engineer). I found this site researching Ford's stability. Is this site representative of your experiences? Looking for advice.
Are there actually quotas
Is there any truth to these performance quotas? Can anyone steel man what's going on here, cause on the surface this seems absolutely ridiculous. Are managers literally being given percentages? 70% must be met, 20% did not meet, 10% meet, etc? If... — read more
JF deploys Model E employees to Ford Blue to crack down on recalls and high warranty.
Model E employees will work collaboratively with Ford Blue contributors.
When hourly workers go, salary will too
JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) -Ford Motor's South African unit plans to lay off more than 470 employees as it seeks to adjust production capacity to match current and future market demands, the South African Solidarity union said on Thursday. Ford has sent... — read more

Forced Lower rankings
Organizations are being forced to mark more than a quarter of their teams low in performance reviews as low achievers, or inconsistent or however they want to work it. People are being marked low in the overalls to satisfy HR demands, but if they... — read more
Good Job Team ! Ford recalls 355,000 trucks
https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/ford-recalls-355000-trucks-over-dashboard-display-failures-could-cause-crashes
Got separated
Happened yesterday, but had the night to sleep it over. Many years of hard work and I’m not optimistic about the coming months looking for a new job.
H1Bs Monopoly
Most of the H1Bs are remote and having working multiple jobs, and pulled unqualified spouses into the company. When will this stop? Ford is renewing H1Bs while laying off Americans!!! WAKEUP!!!!!
Recalls can be prevented if Ford was not so Siloed. Dark Instrument Panel
This is sad, I reported many bugs (Jira’s) 3+ years ago when I worked as Ford as an Engineer. Then I was laid off (Paid to much?) Wish Ford best of luck, but change is needed. Job market is bad, I just saw this recall tonight on the news. I... — read more
Manager Used AI Slop to Write Performance Evaluation
Crazy to think that after being forced into giving all of his team insulting and fabricated feedback (we exceed our deliverable metrics and objectives) this is the effort he puts in, when his whole job is to manage a small team. I really agree with... — read more
Future’s so bright!
Ford is doing very well, so Jim has time for his Bronco road trip!
Layoffs happening now
Does anyone have any LL4+ names of recent layoffs? Mid-years are done, but it sure seems quiet, at least for LL4+.
Ford Forced to Recall Another Batch of Vehicles. It’s at 7 Million This Year, a Record.
There will be layoffs to reduce overhead so the dividend checks to the Ford family can continue.
I was let go today.
But I feel relieved. What truly hurts is when companies don’t have a backbone to take the accountability on themselves and put the blame on you. Well, such companies are not a place to work for anyways.
Making Brackets
I was listening to the Dave Ramsey show and one of the callers said her job was making brackets. Made me think of the infamous quote.
more Jira tickets
So my forced ranking was Whatever?
RTO
Just curious if JF is getting his badge swipes while camping out in the desert? I’m assuming he will get one of those nasty emails from HR as this will certainly lower his average. Rules for thee, not for me. It’s all smoke a mirrors here.
Ford RTO and the new campus
https://www.fastcompany.com/91376683/fords-reimagining-offices-starting-with-a-historic-engineering-lab This article should ask how much the employees love RTO! Papering over cracks. You can't polish a tu-d.
