PC Tracking Taking Place?
I have heard conspiracies, but have never seen an actual report on this…. Is Ford preparing statistics on work from home PC usage as a means to measure productivity? What are they looking at? Who is looking at this? The latest AI in this area is... — read more
PIP process here
Can someone explain how it happens? I got meets expectations mid year but tbh I don’t know about full year and I know my LL6 is a POS and might throw me under the bus.

Joining Ford has been the biggest regret of my life
Just a cess pool of mediocrity and half way dead co workers who want to just sit and warm the desk. Stock price is here in the gutter and will probably trend to 0 while Tesla will keep making ATHs. No one who is ambitious or even remotely talented... — read more
I work in ADAS; should I expect to get laid off this upcoming year?
Unsure of what to make of it. I work in ADAS and have the HTHD designation
Model E gravy train is over
All, get out while you can. Model E is a failure, a mistake from Farley. It's a money loosing business and all facilities are being reconsidered to shutdown.
Farley and Model e departing? Take Ford Next with them…
I saw a comment somewhere that the expectation is Farley will depart early 2024 and the Model e group gets dissolved. This would make sense since the EV plans are not happening and breaking out the financials just amplifies that. I noticed in the SEC... — read more
To the people defending this garbage company
Maybe if we weren’t all underpaid and were actually getting career development here, people would actually be proud to work here and give effort. Almost everyone I know is upset and disgruntled to work here. The only people who stay more than 2... — read more
Why suddenly all supervisors and managers are acting like little bi--hes
How come you expect us to be loyal now that you have treated us like sh-t all year? Lay off people bot based on merit but who you’re in bed with

Im starting another job while collecting a paycheck here
I barely work 15 hours a week on a good week and the management is completely clueless. Worst case i work 2 hours more in evening to deal with anything out of the blue.

New hires are too sensitive
It's disheartening how asking someone to do their job is now often seen as yelling in today's workplaces. Literally, just saying it in a normal voice is considered "hostile." It feels like if I don't shower them with a "great job," I'm being super... — read more

Well, What Will Ford Do.
Model e subscription revenue projections
Since the EV production has been reduced, has the Model e sales team adjusted their revenue projections? When will subscription sales revenue be a line item on the P&L? I thought Farley said that would be happening two years ago, but don’t see... — read more
I have no faith in the leadership here
just lies and lies . I’m expecting a massive layoff next year despite all the BS
2024 Objectives / Planning
Nice to see management is getting 2024 PR objectives set before break. I feel better knowing there is a plan for me.
Ford EV sales vs Tesla
Ford sold 62,000 EVs in 2023. Ford sold 61,000 EVs in 2022. An increase of 1.6% YOY. Tesla sold 1.3 million EVs in 2022. Tesla sold an average of 430,000 EVs per quarter in 2023. Wholly cow. It will be over 1.7 million units this year. ... — read more
PINs for Family and Friends
I've heard so much about quality issue and wait times at dealers with new, nearly new, and used Fords. I wonder, does this make Ford employees want to keep thier PINs and family discounts for the sake of thier own reputation? Seems like until these... — read more

Ford Model E posted another loss for 2023
$4 billion dollar loss this year, that is less than what the analyst expected. Ford stock may go up.
Break for two weeks for holidays but still stressed about my future here
Unsure what is going to happen to me if i get "below target" next year.
Im expecting to get laid off in 2024
Genuinely don't see how another round doesn't happen. Morale is below the floor, people are checked out. H1b army is scared for their lives and being worked to death here.
COBRA Limit
Can you extend COBRA beyond 18 month? Have you done it?
Aren't we lucky to be in the United States, to make and engineer cars?
I am working on a major project but due to the extremely flawed vision and project direction, it is not delivering (too many changes with too little resources and horrible time management). I asked my manager how bad it is, he said.... it is bad. .. — read more
Too many people are hoping to be laid off
That says a lot about the current state of Ford.
Layoffs are coming soon
Morale is dog s**t No one wants to really be here ( everyone is milking as many paychecks as they can) This is a place where careers go to die
How we know his job is on the line…
“Doug Field makes biggest nonfamily insider stock buy in decades”
Global Town Hall talk..
My impression: JF's speech is slurred, and according to him, U.S. workers are the cause of all quality and money issues.
Ford cuts F150 EV production
This is the right decision. Why build something that you can't sell and people don't want to buy. Why make something that you loose $ for every single vehicle you make. Shut it down.
Retaliation for buying a non ford truck?
So, full disclosure I'm in the camp that a job is just a job and a means to a paycheck. I'm also early career, 2 years at ford now so maybe naive. That said, I was in NY recently just after thanksgiving and they had a show cybertruck at the mall. ... — read more
