Pink Bunny Slippers!

Bahahaha. After watching the GTH, I never realized the pink bunny slippers behind DF. Does he do this on purpose? I guess I was quietly quitting and not paying much attention to previous GTHs.

No one has any sense of urgency here

Projects get delayed, people take weeks to do simple tasks. No one responds for days on slack It’s like you show up and do the absolute minimum to show you are somewhat productive. This really isn’t a place for go getters and people with actual... — read more

Scoozi, thought it was torqued right.

High end vehicles, high end customers, huge disappointment. The tailspin continues. As Ford Authority reported back in March, a handful of 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R owners have reported that their trucks have been leaking oil from a variety of... — read more

It's just a job

Leave if you're that unhappy. I don't get some of you. Nobody is forcing you to be here. Just walk away. Do yourself a favor - and the rest of us as well.

95% of the salary employees here do absolutely nothing

Work that would take a week to get done by 1 person takes 6 weeks by 4 people. I’ve never seen such an inefficient group of people Seems like the trick here is to do as little as possible, talk big game and distance yourself from failing projects — read more

New LL6 is horrible manager

I don’t like having him as my manager; should I complain to my LL5 that I want to move to another team? The LL6 is a useless BSer who has no technical knowledge on anything and I don’t respect him.

THIS is Ford

If Ford is somehow able to entertain or meet the demands of the UAW unlike Stellantis and GM, perhaps that's an indication that they truly have been screwing the hourly workers for years. Ford is always measuring itself against the performance... — read more

There is no future for this company tbh

People don’t collaborate, people take hours to respond on slack / WebEx. This is where dreams and goals go to die. If you are extremely unambitious and want to coast for the rest of your life , this is the place to be.

What if this strike was a collaboration between Ford and the UAW to be the pretext for the "bloodbath" that's going to happen on 09-23-2023? Ford will eventually give the UAW the number they agreed on, and they use that increase as pretext to layoff... — read more
