Ford is too big to fail

It can shrink, it can sell off parts, but a Yellow situation will never happen to Ford due to its size and cultural significance. I'm not going to debate whether it's right or wrong, but the government (regardless of the party in charge) will always... — read more 

Applying but not hearing back

Has anyone part of the most recent lay off been able to find another job yet? I keep applying but don’t hear back. It’s discouraging seeing friends at other companies go through lay offs as well. It makes me think getting another job will be... — read more 

Anxious all the time

Is anyone else sad and anxious all the time lately? It’s all stemmed from this place. The micro management, upper management instilling fear, evening meetings, weekend meetings, heavy workload. You can’t make a simple mistake without getting thrown... — read more 

Is this the culture here?

I’ve been here for a while now and I still pretty much operate in a silo. I haven’t learned anything from anyone and I just use the internet to figure stuff out. It would be nice to actually collaborate and learn from other people but everyone is... — read more 

Did you see what happened to Yellow?

101 year-old company that ended up deep in debt. And a fight with the union did them in. My guess? Ford is next. That debt in the 1st half numbers was eye-popping. And now a huge fight with the UAW is underway! If Ford sees a downturn in sales it... — read more

Ford equipment return

Those who were laid off by Ford, how did the return of your Ford issued equipment work? Did they ask you to return just the laptop and the phone or also the chair, the monitor and docking stations?

Didn't want to start applying again

... but it seems like based on this site, that not starting interview processes outside will look really d-mb in September (potentially I guess)

Is September 26th the next axe date?

If it is, I really need to get to interviewing. I have a newborn on the way and don't want to be unable to provide for my family because I get thrown under the bus in 2 months. I have been so stressed every quarter, worrying if I am next

LOL - Building the Middle Class

Saw this quote from Farley in an article. What a cheeseball, talking about the UAW negotiations; building a stronger America and middle class. Saying this after destroying 3000+ engineering positions in Dearborn, priceless. "To wrap up, there is... — read more 

Did any Nov 2022 retirees recently get this?
